A benzo[b]thiophene synthesis by Rh-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction of arylboronic acids, alkynes, and elemental sulfur (S8) is developed. A notable feature of this protocol is that the thienannulation (thiophene annulation) proceeds with high regioselectivity via the sequential alkyne insertion, C?H activation, and then sulfur atom transfer to the metallacycle intermediate. In a similar manner, dibenzothiophenes can be synthesized from the parent biarylboronic acids and S8. (Figure presented.).
Selective palladium-catalysed ipso arylation of α,α- disubstituted benzo[b]thien-2-ylmethanols with aryl bromides using PCy 3 as ligand

α,α-Diphenylbenzo[b]thien-2-ylmethanol was treated with a series of aryl bromides in the presence of palladium(II) acetate and tricyclohexylphosphane to give the appropriate 2-aryl-benzo[b]thiophenes in good to excellent yield with concomitant formation o
