Abstract
Abstract 2-bromo-3-chlorothiophene 2 underwent nucleophilic aromatic substitution using cyanocupper to give 2-cyano-3-chlorothiophene 3 which, after fluoration with CsF, hydrolysis and decarboxylation gave 3-fluorothiophene 6 in good yield. The electropolymerisation of 6 is also described.
