Chemistry is an experimental science, and the best way to enjoy it and learn about it is performing experiments. Formula: C8H5BrS. Introducing a new discovery about 5394-13-8, Name is 2-Bromobenzo[b]thiophene
A highly efficient one-pot reaction of 2-(gem-dibromovinyl) phenols(thiophenols) with K4Fe(CN)6 to 2-cyanobenzofurans(thiophenes)
2-Cyanobenzofurans and 2-cyanobenzothiophenes were prepared through an efficient one-pot Ullmann-reaction/cyanation reaction. In the presence of CuI/Na2CO3-Pd(OAc)2/PPh3 in DMF, the reaction of 2-(gem-dibromovinyl)phenols and 2-(gem-dibromovinyl)thiophenols with K4Fe(CN)6, as non-toxic and user-friendly cyanating reagent, proceeded smoothly to generate the corresponding 2-cyanobenzofurans and 2-cyanobenzothiophenes in good yields.
Note that a catalyst decreases the activation energy for both the forward and the reverse reactions and hence accelerates both the forward and the reverse reactions.Formula: C8H5BrS, you can also check out more blogs about5394-13-8
