Abstract

Results 1. We have found that neither 2-bromothiophene nor 2-iodothiophene are affected by liquid ammonia at its boiling point where the original reactions were carried out. Both thienyl halidesused were recovered quantitatively. They are both easily soluble in liquid ammonia at the concentrations used in the above reactions. The reactions of 2, 5- dibromothiophene and 2, 3-dibromothiophene with sodium acetylide and sodium amide in ...
