Keywords:

thiophene; Gewald reaction; methyl cyanoacetate

To a mixture contaning ethyl acetoacetate (13.02 g, 0.1 mol), methyl cyanoacetate (3.21 g, 0.1 mol) and sulfur (3.21 g, 0.1 mol) in ethanol ( 20 ml), morpholine (10 ml) was added dropwise over a period of 30 minutes at 35°C. The reaction mixture was heated at 65°C and stirred for 3 hrs, then allowed to cool to room temperature. The precipated powder was filtered and washed with ethanol (2x30 ml).

Recrystallization from ethanol gave off-white powder (12.65 g, 52 %).

M.p. 95-97°C (Ethanol, uncorrected).
