Multicomponent reactions of ammonium thiocyanate, acyl chlorides, alkyl bromides, and enaminones: A facile one-pot synthesis of thiophenes

摘要

An efficient synthesis of thiophene derivatives is described via one-pot reaction between ammonium thiocyanate, acyl chlorides, α-halocarbonyls, and enaminones under solvent-free conditions at 65 °C. The mild reaction conditions and high yields of the products exhibit the good synthetic advantage of these methods.
