Study of the mechanism of recyclization of furans into thiophenes and selenophenes in conditions of acid catalysis. 4. study of the effect of the solvent and direction of reactions of hydrolysis and recyclization of 2,5-dimethylfuran
Abstract
The kinetics of hydrolysis of 2,5-dimethylfuran and its recyclization into the corresponding thiophene were investigated in water-alcohol medium in 95, 80 and 50% ethyl alcohol in the presence of HCl. It was found that the rates of these reactions are a function of both the initial concentration of the acid component and the concentration of water in the alcohol. The rate of hydrolysis is a function of the dilution of the alcohol to a greater degree than the rate of recyclization.
