In this study, the regioselectivity of the Sonogashira-, Negishi- and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of unsymmetrical 2,5-dibromo-3-substituted thiophenes was examined under different conditions.
In the 3-position the following group were introduced: CH3, COOCH3, CH2COOCH3, CH2P(O)Ph2. For the CH3-group 2-bromo-3-methyl-5- substituted thiophenes and the corresponding disubstituted products were obtained, due to steric reasons. The same results apply to the CH2COOCH3- and CH2P(O)Ph2-groups. In the case of the COOCH3-group, 5-bromo-2-substituted 3-methylthiophene carboxylic acid and the corresponding disubstituted products werre obtained. For this substrate, electronic effects play an important role.
