Generation and Synthetic Utility of Dianions Derived from Thiophencarboxylic Acids

Thiophen-2- and -3-carboxylic acid are rapidly and regioselectively metallated by lithium di-isopropylamide in tetrahydrofuran at -78 deg C.The resulting dianionic species react with a range of electrophiles to give the expected thiophencarboxylic acid homologues in good-to-excellent yields.
Formation and reactivity of dianions derived from 2- and 3-thiophencarboxylic acids

Dianions (3) and (6) can be generated in high yield from the corresponding thiophencarboxylic acids with lithium diisopropylamide and react with a number of representative electrophiles to give fair to good yields of 5-substituted-thiophen-2-carboxylic acids and 2-substituted thiophen-3-carboxylic acids respectively.
