A simple and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of benzo[b]thiophenes and naphtho[2,l-6]thiophenes from arenethiols and α-halo ketones using Na2CO3/SiO2-PPA/ SiO2. Reaction of a-halo ketones with arenethiols is promoted by Na2CO3/SiO2 to afford α-sulfanyl ketones, which cyclize in the presence of PPA/SiO2 to give the corresponding thiophene-fused arenes in one-pot. The reaction using α-bromo acetals instead of α-halo ketones also gave the corresponding naphtho[2,l-b] thiophenes via a three-step reaction in one-pot. Thieme Stuttgart.
