5-Phenylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Thiophene derivatives are widely used in the synthesis of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, chemical reagents, dyes, and polymer auxiliaries. 5-Phenylen-2-carboxylic acid has extensive applications in organic synthesis.

Definition

ChEBI: 5-Phenylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid is a thiophenecarboxylic acid.

Synthesis

GENERAL STEPS: To a mixed solution of methanol (5 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) of 2-methoxycarbonyl-5-phenylthiophene (437 mg) was added 1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide (3 mL), and the reaction was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, 1 N hydrochloric acid (5 mL) was slowly added to the reaction mixture for acidification. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration and washed with a small amount of cold water and dried under vacuum to give 5-phenylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid (397 mg, 97.1% yield). The product was confirmed by NMR hydrogen spectrum (DMSO-d6, δ): 7.3-7.5 (3H, m), 7.58 (1H, d, J = 3.9 Hz), 7.6-7.8 (3H, m), 13.15 (1H, wide s). Electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) showed m/z: 203 ([M-H]-).
