Summary
-
1.
A new method for the synthesis of 2-(2-thenyl)furan was developed.
-
2.
By the action of butyllithium on 2-(2-thenyl)furan and subsequent acetylation a monoketone is formed in which the acetyl group is in the α-position of the thiophene ring.
-
3.
A study is made of the reductive desulfurization and hydrolysis of some of the 2-(2-thenyl)furan derivatives synthesized.
