Scaffolds of thiophene and benzothiophene are the important class of bioactive compounds found abundant in nature. The Diels-Alder reactions of 2-(1′-cycloalkenyl)thiophenes and 2-(1′-cycloalkenyl)benzo[b]thiophenes having the alkene groups present in five-, six-, seven-, eight-, and twelve-membered rings with substituted N-phenylmaleimides are characterized. The size of the cycloalkene rings plays a critical role in dictating the product distributions of expected and isomerized Diels-Alder adducts. 2D NMR studies indicate that the isolated isomers for 2-(1′-cycloalkenyl)thiophenes having five-, six-, and seven-membered rings are aromatized benzothiophene products, whereas eight- and twelve-membered rings are un-rearranged adducts. In addition, the product of subsequent ene-reaction with the N-phenylmaleimide is isolated for the five- and six-membered ring cases. Interestingly, in the 2-(1′-cycloalkenyl)benzo[b]thiophene having five-, six-, seven-, eight-, and twelve-membered rings, the un-rearranged dibenzothiophene Diels-Alder adduct is isolated in every instance. Molecular mechanics and density functional theory (M06-2X and PBE0-D3) calculations are performed to understand the differential reactivity of the various dienes for both the initial Diels-Alder reaction and a possible, subsequent ene reaction.

A series of novel 1-hydroxycycloalkyl- and cycloalkenylthiophenes (4a-4c, 4e, 6b, 6d, 6e) and bithiophenes (5a-5e, 7b-7e) were synthesized via Grignard reaction. The conditions control in the Grignard reaction allowed to obtain tertiary alcohols or cycloa

Thiophene-S,S-dioxidized diarylethenes introducing various alkyl groups at the reactive positions were newly synthesized. The diarylethenes showed reversible photochromism, whereas the photocycloreversion reaction was suppressed by thiophene-oxidation. Th
