Abstract
Dimethyl(2-thienyl)sulfonium salts were synthesized for the first time. The corresponding triiodomercurates were obtained by the reaction of methyl 2-thienyl sulfide or its substituted derivatives with methyl iodide and mercuric iodide. Sulfonium perchlorates are formed as a result of the reaction of thiophene compounds with dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of POCl3 and perchloric acid. The HgI3 − anion was replaced by NO3 − by means of an anion-exchange resin. The methods for the dimethylation of sulfonium salts with conversion of them to the corresponding sulfides were studied; the conditions for obtaining quantitative yields from these reactions by means of an anion exchange resin in the acetate form were found.
