Evidently the temperature and the low solubility of compound 3 in AcOH have an important influence on the
course of the condensation process.
1H NMR spectra of DMSO-d6 solutions with TMS as internal standard were recorded with a Varian
Gemini 200 (200 MHz) instrument. IR spectra of nujol mulls were recorded with an IKC-29 spectrophotometer.
Elemental analyses were carried out with a Perkin-Elmer CHN analyzer. The thiolate 2 was prepared by a known
method [4].
3-Amino-6-oxo-4-phenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide (1) was obtained
by a modified procedure [3]: 10% KOH (15.7 ml, 30 mmol) was added to a solution of thiolate 2 (10 g,
30 mmol) in DMF (30 ml), and stirred with heating until solution was complete. The mixture was filtered to
α-chloroacetamide (3.0 g, 32 mmol) in DMF (5 ml), heated to boiling, stirred at ~50°C for 3 h, kept over night,
then more 10% KOH (15.7 ml) was added, boiled for 5 min, kept for 2 d, and then diluted with water (200 ml).
The precipitate which formed over 7 d was filtered off and washed with water. Yield 80%; mp 258-260°C (from

(3).
A
mixture of thienopyridine 1 (1.3 g, 3.5 mmol) and phthalic anhydride (1.3 g, 8.8 mmol) in AcOH (15 ml) was
boiled with stirring for 4 h, kept for 24 h at ~20°C, the precipitate was filtered off, and washed with hot EtOH to
give pure thienopyridine 3 as white crystals (1.18 g, 81), mp 350-355°C (dec). IR spectrum, ν, cm-1: broad

A mixture of thienopyridine 1 (1 g, 3.5 mmol) and phthalic anhydride (1.3 g, 8.8 mmol) in DMF (13 ml) was
boiled for 10 h, kept for 24 h at ~20°C, the bright yellow product was filtered off and washed with hot EtOH.
