The mixture is concentrated in vacuo and the residue is taken up in 2000 ml of toluene. The solution is then treated with 300 ml of water while cooling slowly.
The mixture is neutralized by the portionwise addition of sodium carbonate. The organic phase is separated and the aqueous phase is extracted with 1000 ml of toluene. After washing with water the combined organic solutions are dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated, whereby crude 7-chloro-thieno [2, 3-c] pyridine is obtained as a brown oil. adc) 4.85 g of 7-chloro-thieno [2. 3-c] pyridine are dissolved in 15 ml of dimethylformamide and 3.18 g of sodium hydrogen sulphide monohydrate are added under argon.

After completion of the addition the mixture is stirred at room temperature for about a further half hour and then added dropwise to 27.8 ml of triethylamine. The mixture is subsequently stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes.
The solution is washed twice with 750 ml of water each time, dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated in vacuo. The red crystals obtained are purified by chromatography and recrystallization from chloroform/ ether/hexane. There is obtained 3-hydroxy-2-phenylthia- zolo [3. 2-a] thieno [2. 3-cjpyridinium hydroxide (internal salt) as red crystals of m. p. 195-200 (dec.).
