Thiophene-2-carbaldehyde adds to aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes with the mediation of samarium diiodide and hexamethylphosphoramide. These hydroxyalkylations occur at the 5-position of thiophene-2-carbaldehyde. The self- and cross-coupling reactions of thiophene-3-carbaldehyde occur at the 2-position. S-Alkylation of the reaction intermediates gives substituted γ-lactols.
