The rate and equilibrium constants for the formation of the Meisenheimer-type adducts from some 4-nitro-2-X- (5) or some 2-nitro-4-X-thiophenes (7) and sodium methoxide have been measured at 25 deg C in methanol or methanol-dimethyl sulphoxide mixtures.The observed stability and reactivity patterns have been interpreted in the light of the hyper-ortho relation in the thiophene ring and the special ability of the nitro group to stabilize effectively the adducts from a para-like position also.
Substitution Reactions of Nitrothiophens. IV Limitations in Scope of the SN(AEAE) Reaction in Thienylalkyl Derivatives

The reactions of 5-nitro-3-thienylethyl chloride and acetate with lithium 2-nitropropan-2-ide (1) give excellent yields of the C-alkylate, 4-(1,2-dimethyl-2-nitropropyl)-2-nitrothiophen, by the SN(AEAE) mechanism.The cyano group is not a sufficiently activating substituent to support the SN(AEAE) process and 4-cyano-2-thienyl-methyl and -ethyl chlorides with the salt (1) give O-alkylated products by an SN2 mechanism.The occurence of SN(AEAE) reactions with other nucleophiles is difficult to prove but benzenethiolate and 4-nitro-2-thienylmethyl acetate do react b y this mechanism to give a moderate yield of 4-nitro-2-thienylmethyl phenyl sulfide.
