Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

Dealkylation of the methoxy group and formation of N-substituted 5-alkyl-3-aminomethylene-4-thiolen-2-ones occur during the action of substituted formamides and phosphorus oxychloride on 5-methoxy-2-alkylthiophenes on heating at 50–70 deg C. At 20 deg the major reaction products are 5-alkyl-2-methoxy-3-formylthiophenes.
