2-bromo-3-hexylthiophene Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

A 1 M solution of compound 8a in DMF was cooled to 0 °C in the absence of light and NBS (1.0 eq.) was added. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature, stirred overnight and then diluted with DCM . The solution was extracted with HFirst, 2-bromo-3-hexylthiophene was synthesized via the reaction of 3-hexylthiophene with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS). To a flask equipped with magnetic stirrer, 3-hexylthiophene (10.000 g, 59.4 mmol) and THF (100 mL) were charged with vigorous stirring and then NBS (10.580 g, 59.4 mmol) was added at 0 °C. The reaction was carried out at 0 °C for 2 h and then 100 mL of deionized water was added. The organic layer was extracted out with diethyl ether and the organic layer was successively washed with 10percent aqueous solutions of Na2-Bromo-3-hexylthiophene was prepared similarly to a method described by Carlsen et al.10 and was modified as follows: 3-hexylthiophene (12.0 g, 71.3 mmol) was dissolved in glacial acetic acid (100 mL) under an air atmosphere. Then NBS (12.7 g, 71.5 mmol) was added in one portion. The reaction mixture was stirred for 2.5 h at 22 °C. Then the solution was poured into water (200 mL) and diethyl ether (250 mL). After extraction, the organic phase was separated and washed with aqueous NaOH (2 M, 5 x 150 mL), followed by water (3 x 150 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4 and then the solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified by vigreux distillation (130 °C, 4 x 10-2 mbar) to receive 13.5 g (77percent, lit.10 92percent) of light yellow oil.

Uses

2-Bromo-3-hexylthiophene is used in the synthesis of End-capped Regioregular Poly(3-hexylthiophene). It is also used to synthesize well-defined head-to-tail-type oligothiophenes which are used in a number of high-technology applications including OLEDs.
