Abstract

Thiophenes may be converted to substituted arenes by oxidative cycloaddition to alkynes or by oxidative cycloaddition to alkenes with subsequent oxidative SO-extrusion. Cyano- and acetylamino-groups do not interfere in the reaction and are stable under the reaction conditions. This transformation can be used as a novel route to non-natural aryl-containing amino acids.
