An unusual nucleophilic substitution on an aromatic substrate. Reaction of 2,5-dimethyl-3,4-dinitrothiophen with sodium arenethiolates in methanol

Abstract

The reaction between 2,5-dimethyl-3,4-dinitrothiophen and sodium arenethiolates gives aryl 2-(5-methyl-4-nitro)thenyl sulphides via an unusual nucleophilic substitution, as shown by the 1H n.m.r. spectra of the isolated sulphides and the corresponding sulphones.
