- Precursor to further functionalization (lithiation, metalation, substitution).
- Provides electronic properties useful in materials research (polythiophenes, OLED)
Advantages of 2-Chlorothiophene
- Chlorothiophene is a stable, reactive heteroaryl building block — chlorine acts as a leaving group for cross-coupling.
- Effective precursor for selective C–C and C–heteroatom functionalization in pharma and agrochemical routes.
- Good commercial availability and multiple vendor grades – aids scale-up and supply security.
- Thiophene core imparts useful electronic properties in materials and bioactive scaffolds.
