To prepare a compound of the formula I, for example a 2-hydroxythiophene of the formula II ##STR8## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each as defined above, is condensed with a compound of the formula III
R.sup.3 -X=0 (III)
where R.sup.3 and X have the abovementioned meanings [except X=C(CN)]. If a compound of the formula III is an aldehyde or ketone, it can be advantageous in some cases to use it in acetal form.
The condensation is advantageously carried out in an inert solvent at from 20.degree. to 160.degree. C., preferably at from 20.degree. to 100.degree. C. Suitable solvents are for example methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, isobutanol, methylglycol, dioxane, acetone, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene and nitrobenzene. Preference is given to working in alcohols, for example in propanol.
The condensation can also be carried out in the presence of acid or basic catalysts. The water formed in the course of the reaction can, if a suitable solvent is used, for example toluene, be removed from the reaction mixture azeotropically. However, it is also possible to carry out the reaction in the presence of water.
Suitable acid catalysts are for example mineral acids, such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, carboxylic acids, such as formic acid, acetic acid or trichloroacetic acid, phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus trichloride and thionyl chloride.
Suitable basic catalysts are for example ammonium acetate and amines, such as piperidine, pyrrolidine, pyridine, triethylamine and triethanolamine.
To prepare those compounds of the formula I where X is C(CN), it is possible to react those compounds of the formula I where X is CH with metal cyanides, such as sodium cyanide or potassium cyanide, and in a subsequent reaction to reoxidize with suitable oxidizing agents, for example bromine, K.sub.3 [Fe(CN).sub.6 ], Pb(OAc).sub.4 or FeCl.sub.3 .times.6H.sub.2 O. This method of cyanation is described in Dyes and Pigments 1 (1980), 3 for coumarin derivatives.
Some compounds of the formula II are known from the abovementioned references. In addition, DD-A-113,233 describes a process for preparing 2-hydroxy-3-cyanothiophenes whose ring position 5 is unsubstituted (for example 2-hydroxy-3-cyano-4-phenylthiophene).
