METHOD FOR PRODUCING THIOPHENECARBOXYALDEHYDE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for industrially advantageously producing thiophenecarboxyaldehyde, capable of producing thiophene carboxyaldehyde in a high yield by a simple method from readily obtainable thiophenecarbonitrile without requiring a complicated operation. SOLUTION: This method for producing thiophenecarboxyaldehyde is characterized in that thiophenecarbonitrile is reacted with formic acid in the presence of a Raney nickel.
