Abstract:Derivatives of 2‐carboxy‐3‐hydroxy‐thiopheneand of 3‐carboxy‐4‐hydroxy‐thio‐ phene have been synthesized in order to examine the influence of different bond orders on the chelating properties of the salicylic acid grouping in these compounds, which show a blue color reaction with aqueous FeCl3.
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.
