A number of 2‐N‐alkylamino‐ or 2‐N‐phenylamino‐, 2‐N, N‐dialkylamino‐, and 2‐N‐alkyl‐N‐phenylaminothiophenes have been prepared in good yields by adding a solution of tert‐butylalcohol and potassium tert‐butoxide in dimethylsulfoxide to a solution of the adduct from a lithiated 1‐alkyne, RCH2C≡CLi, or the lithiated allene, tBuCH=C=CHLi, and isothiocyanate, R′N=C=S, in tetrahydrofuran and subsequently hydrolyzing the reaction mixture or quenching it with methyl iodide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
