RESUMEN
Two syntheses of 3-substituted-4-amino-[3,2-c]thienopyridines have been developed to replace the standard literature route to these compounds, which uses unattractive conditions involving azide and high temperatures. The first synthesis utilizes a Friedel-Crafts reaction as its key ring-forming step, whereas the second route relies on an unprecedented intramolecular reductive cyclization between a nitroolefin and a nitrile as its key ring-forming step. The development and optimization of each 3-substituted-4-amino-[3,2-c]thienopyridine synthesis is discussed and a comparison of the routes is presented.
