The synthesis of the benzothiophene analogues of the orally active antifungal agents ketoconazole and itraconazole 3a and 3b is reported. The key heterocyclic system 3‐(1‐piperazinyl)benzo[ b ]thiophene is prepared by formation of the enamine between a benzothienone and ethyl 1‐piperazinecarboxylate. After elaboration of the respective N ‐substituents, the methoxy group is cleaved with boron tribromide, and O ‐alky‐1ated with the corresponding mesylates.
