Procedure

In an open flask, cuprous oxide (1.95 g., 13.7 mmoles) was combined with 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorothiophenol (5.0 g., 27.4 mmoles) in 40 ml. of dimethylformamide and heated at 140° C. for 2 hours. The reaction was cooled, 5-bromofuran-3-carboxylic acid (2.62 g., 13.7 mmoles) in 50 ml. of dimethylformamide was added, the reaction mixture refluxed for 2 hours, and product (2.75 g.) isolated according to the procedure of Example 9. Recrystallization from methanol/water gave purified 5-(2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenylthio)furan-3-carboxylic acid (1.78 g., m.p. 150°-153° C., m/e 292).
