The application of sterically hindered palladium catalysts to the regioselective hydrodebromination of 2,3,5-tribromothiophene has been studied in detail, including the effects of catalyst choice, solvent, reaction time, and temperature, as well as the method of NaBH4 addition and the role of chelating additives to effect NaBH4 solubility. Ultimately it was determined that the background reaction between NaBH4 and bromothiophenes is too facile to allow both total conversion and high selectivity. Optimized conditions finally allowed a selectivity of ca. 16:1 with overall conversion of 100%. However, complications of overdebromination under these conditions still limit the yield of the desired 2,3-dibromothiophene to 65%.

One-pot halogen dance/Negishi cross-coupling of readily available 2,5-dibromothiophenes is described. A lithium diisopropylamide (LDA)-mediated halogen dance reaction resulted in the formation of thermodynamically stable α-lithiodibromothiophenes, which w

The regioselective preparative debromination of 2,3,5-tribromothiophene to isomerically pure 2,3- and 2,4-dibromothiophene was effected by the use of sodium borohydride in the presence and absence of transition metal catalyst using predetermined optimum conditions from GC trials.
