“…56 Aminothiophene derivatives 85, 88a,b and 93 reacted with the N,N-dimethylenamino ketones 95a,b in a similar fashion yielding the corresponding secondary enaminones 95a,b, 96ad and 97a,b (Scheme 29). 56 In contrast to the behavior of aminothiophene toward N,Ndimethylenamino ketones, interaction 55 of compounds 1d,e with 88a in acetic acid at reux for three hours gave C-1 alkylation products 99a,b instead of the N-alkylated derivatives 98a,b that would be expected by analogy with the other reports 42,56 on the reactivity of nitrogen nucleophiles toward electron poor olens (Scheme 30). Similar to the behavior of 73a toward 1d,e enaminoketone 23 reacted with thienocoumarin 85 under microwave heating in the presence of few drops of acetic acid to produce only the C-1 alkylation product 100.…”
