Popis: 2-Thiophenecarboxylic and 2,5-thiohenedicarboxylic acid esters were synthesized via the reaction of thiophene with the CCl4-ROH-catalyst system, with a total yield of 44–85%. A possible reaction scheme includes the successive steps of alkylation of thiophene with carbon tetrachloride, leading to 2-trichloromethylthiophene, and alcoholysis of the product giving the corresponding 2-thiophenecarboxylate. The best catalysts for this reaction are VO(acac)2, Fe(acac)3, and Mo(CO)6.
