Procedure
Bromine (46.5 g) in acetic acid (200 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of thiophene-3-carboxylic acid (38 g) in acetic acid (300 mL). After the addition was complete, stirring was continued at room temperature for 30 min. The reaction mixture was poured into 2000 mL of ice/water and the precipitated solid was collected and recrystallised from water to give a colourless solid; MS (ES−) 205, 207 (MH+).
