Abstract
Methyl 3-aryl-2-bromo-2-chloropropanoates, which can be prepared by Meerwein reaction from methyl 2-chloroacrylate and various arenediazonium salts under copper(II) bromide catalysis, were used as starting materials in reactions with substituted methanethiols for the construction of a broad range of substituted 3-hydroxythiophenes.
