Herein, we describe a novel approach for the practical synthesis of tetrasubstituted thiophenes <b>8</b>. The developed method was particularly used for the facile preparation of thienyl heterocycles <b>8</b>. The mechanism for this reaction is based on the formation of a sulfur ylide-like intermediate. It was clearly suggested by (i) the intramolecular cyclization of ketene <i>N,S</i>-acetals <b>7</b> to the corresponding thiophenes <b>8</b>, (ii) <sup>1</sup>H NMR studies of Meldrum's acid-sub ...[more]
