Abstract: | A safe and efficient process for the preparation of ethyl 2-methylthiophene-3-carboxylate (5) was devised. This process provides several advantages over the precedents, involving operational simplicity, avoidance of the use of strong bases such as n-butyllithium and application of noncryogenic conditions, and enabled to prepare 5 in 52% overall yield from commercially available 2-methylthiophene on a multikilogram scale. |
