  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The action of two equivalents of sodium in liquid ammonia on bis(alkylthio)thiophenes of types Ia and b leads to the splitting off of the alkyl group from the sulfur atom in the α-position of the thiophene ring and the formation of the corresponding α-mercaptothiophenes II and III. The PMR spectra of the compounds obtained are given.
