Application of directed metalation in synthesis. Part 8: Interesting example of chemoselectivity in the synthesis of thioaurones and hydroxy ketones and a novel anionic ortho-Fries rearrangement used as a tool in the synthesis of thienopyranones and thiafluorenones

Chemoselective synthesis of thioaurones or 3-hydroxy benzo[b]thiophen-2- aryl ketones, 1-hydroxy naphtho[2,1-b]thiophen-2-aryl ketones and chalcones from N,N-diethyl-ortho-methyl sulfanyl aryl amides were described. (Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl) alkylates and (naphtho[2,1-b]thiophen-2-yl) alkylates undergo a novel anionic ortho-Fries rearrangement leading to (3-hydroxy benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl) and (1-hydroxy naphtho[2,1-b]thiophen-2-yl) alkyl ketones. The hydroxy ketones were used as intermediates in the synthesis of wide range of benzothienopyranones and thiafluorenones.

Application of directed metalation in synthesis. Part 7: Synthesis of suitably functionalised benzo[b]thiophenes as key intermediates in the synthesis of benzothienopyranones

One-pot syntheses of (3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl) aryl methanones from ortho-methylsulfanylaryl N,N-diethyl amides and of 1-(3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophen- 2-yl)ethanone and 1-(3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)propan-1-one via an anionic ortho-Fries rearrangement are described. The hydroxy ketones were used as key intermediates in the synthesis of benzothienopyranones.
