An efficient one-step method for the synthesis of fully substituted thiophenes, from thiomorpholides and α-halo ketones, was developed. A mechanism has also been proposed for the course of reaction. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved  

An efficient synthesis of polysubstituted thiophene derivatives is achieved via the multicomponent reaction of β-ketodithioesters, α-haloketones, and cyclohexylisocyanide in aqueous medium  

An efficient one-pot synthesis of functionalized trisubstituted thiophenes via the reaction of 3-morpholino-3-thioxopropanenitrile, cyclohexyl isocyanide and -haloketones is reported. This method provides a straightforward route to a variety of highly substituted thiophenes not easily accessible by conventional methods  

An efficient synthesis of highly substituted thiophenes was developed by means of sulfonylketenimines in a multi-step reaction including heterocumulene system containing sulfur and nitro-alkanes with acidic α-hydrogen. The speed and ease of conducting this four-component reaction under mild conditions and using available materials makes it an ideal method to synthesize high purity substituted thiophenes with sulfonamide moiety. All structures synthesized are confirmed by the instrumental analysis (EI-MS, IR and 1H /13C-NMR). © 2019, © 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group  

New indeno- and naphtho-fused thiophenes were synthesized from reaction of 2-bromo-1-indanone and 2-bromo-1-tetralone with arylthioacetamides in good yields  

A solvent-free, solid-supported, and microwave-assisted thio-Claisen rearrangement of S-propargylated thioamides having an activated α-methylene group has been developed. The methodology could be used successfully for the synthesis of tri-substituted thiophenes and sulfur containing triarylamines. The reaction takes place in short time and in good isolated yield. © 2005 Taylor & Francis  

KF-Al2O3 catalyzes the reaction of arylthioacetamides with α-bromo, ketones to give fully substituted new indeno- and naphtho- fused thiophenes with good yields under solvent-free conditions by controlled microwave heating. A mechanism is proposed for the reaction course. © 2007 Bentham Science Publishers Ltd

The synthesis of new dispiropyrrolidines containing a thiophenone ring has been achieved by a one-pot, three-component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. Unsaturated thiophenone dipolarophiles were reacted with azomethine ylides, generated in situ from sarcosine and cycloketone derivatives (isatin, ninhydrin, acenaphthoquinone), to produce the corresponding cycloadducts in good yields (70-90%). The cycloaddition reaction was found to be highly regio- and diastereoselective  

The reaction kinetics of 2-bromo-5-nitro thiophene with piperidine was studied in a solvent with a mixture of propan-2-ol with methanol and n-hexane at 25°C. The measured rate coefficients of the reaction demonstrated dramatic variations in propan-2-ol-n-hexane mixtures and mild variations in propan-2-ol-methanol system. The second-order rate coefficients of the reaction, kA, decreased sharply with n-hexane content. The multiparameter correlation of log kA versus molecular-microscopic solvent parameters shows interesting results in these solutions. Linear free energy relationship investigations confirm that polarity has a major effect on the reaction rate and hydrogen bond ability of the... 

Biosensors could be used as digital devices to measure the sample infield. Consequently, computational programming along with experimental achievements are required. In this study, a novel biosensor/artificial neural network (ANN) integrated system was developed. Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxy-thiophene)(PEDOT), graphene oxide nano-sheets (GONs) and laccase (Lac) were used to construct a biosensor. The simple and one-pot process was accomplished by electropolymerizing 3,4-ethylenedioxy-thiophene (EDOT) along with GONs and Lac as dopants on glassy carbon electrode. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical characterization were conducted to confirm successful enzyme entrapment. The... 

A new dibenzothiophene (DBT) desulfurizing bacterium was isolated from oil-contaminated soils in Iran. HPLC analysis and PCR-based detection of the presence of the DBT desulfurization genes (dszA, dszB and dszC) indicate that this strain converts DBT to 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) via the 4S pathway. The strain, identified as Rhodococcus erythropolis SHT87, can utilize DBT, dibenzothiophene sulfone, thiophene, 2-methylthiophene and dimethylsulfoxide as a sole sulfur source for growth at 30 °C. The maximum specific desulfurization activity of strain SHT87 resting cells in aqueous and biphasic organic-aqueous systems at 30 °C was determined to be 0.36 and 0.47 μmol 2-HBP min-1 (g dry cell)-1,... 

Corrosion inhibition properties of some heterocyclic compounds (3-mercapto 1,2,4 triazole, benzotriazole, thiophene, and tetra hydro-thiophene) in Cu/H3PO4 medium were investigated theoretically and experimentally via cluster/polarized continuum and gravimetric approaches. Second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation and density functional theories were applied, and the electronic chemical potential, molecular softness, and extent of charge transfer were determined for inhibitor molecules at the metal/solution interface. Good correlations were observed for both theories between the calculated quantities and experimental data. To reveal the quality of metal-inhibitor interactions, comprehensive... 

Accelerated Michael-type Friedel-Crafts alkylation of naphthols with nitrostyrenes in the presence of water is reported. The procedure is simple, catalyst-free, and affords good yields of the products. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved  

An experimental investigation was conducted on the oxidative desulfurization of model sulfur compounds such as dibenzothiophene and benzothiophene in toluene as a simulated light fuel oil with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant and various acids as the catalyst. The influences of various parameters including reaction temperature (T), acid to sulfur molar ratio (Acid/S), oxidant to sulfur molar ratio (O/S), type of acid, and the presence of sodium tungstate and commercial activated carbon as a co-catalyst on the fractional conversion of the model sulfur compounds were investigated. The experimental data obtained were used to determine the reaction rate constant of the model sulfur...
