Abstract

Six types of (bromo)(chloro)(iodo)benzo[b]thiophenes bearing halogen atoms at the 2-, 4-, and 7-positions were prepared from the corresponding 2-(1-adamantylsulfanyl)-1,4-dihalo-3-(haloethynyl)benzene derivatives, by treatment with silica gel under thermal conditions. 4,7-Dihalobenzo[b]thiophenes, bearing two different halogen atoms (chlorine, bromine, or iodine), were also prepared from 2-(1-adamantylsulfanyl)-3-(ethynyl)-1,4-dihalobenzene derivatives.
