Thiophene-3-carboxaldehyde has been used in the synthesis of series of 4-substituted 2-thiophenesulfonamides, acetal and ketal derivatives of 4?-demethylepipodophyllotoxin-β-D-glucoside and epipodophyllotoxin-β-D-glucoside. Also has been used to produce 1,2-di-3-thienyl-2-hydroxyethanone (3,3?-thenoin), 3-thienyl symmetric analog of benzoin.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
Applications
