2-Iodothiophene

2-Iodothiophene (TP-I, Thiopheyl iodide, 2-ThioPhenyl iodide) is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of TP2P (ThioPhenyl-2-Propanone, 2-Thienylacetone). 2-Iodothiophene can react with ethyl acetoacetate and sodium ethoxide using CuI (Copper Iodide) and then reacted with hydrochloric acid and heated. 2-Iodothiophene can also undergo grignard reactions to obtain TP2Pol (ThioPhenyl-2-Propanonl, 2-Thienylisopropanol).

2-Iodothiophene has been obtained by addition of half of 50% aqueous nitric acid dropwise to a mixture of iodine and thiophene with vigorous stirring. As soon as the evolution of gases subsided the rest of the aqueous nitric acid was added to the reaction mixture and refluxed for 30 min. The organic layer was separated and steam distilled to obtain 2-iodothiophene.

Iodination of thiophene with iodine and mercuric oxide at 0°C gave a mixture of 2-iodothiophene (70%) and 2,5-diiodothiophene. 2-Iodothiophene has been exclusively obtained by nitrating thiophene with a mixture of iodine and nitric acid at 90°C. An easy approach for iodination of thiophene is the reaction of iodine with lithiated thiophene.
Tony: I iodinated thiophene using nitric acid and slowly added it, then refluxed it for 30 minutes at 90 °C. I obtained 2-Iodothiophene.

Colfax, Iowa

An incredibly small, racist shithole located near Des Moines, Iowa. 2/8 of the people are good, 6/8 are white trash or just plain strange. Most of the men are man-whores and racist while the women are, well, whores.
Frank : Where are you from man?
Bob : Colfax, Iowa.
Frank : That's unfortunate

B.I.O.M.F

B.I.O.M.F. Is an expression of defiance, first used by inner city teachers angry at excessive testing and closing of inner city schools, that has spread to activists around the country. It’s literal meaning is “Bring It On Mother Fucker” but its ambiguity allows it to be passed off as something less inflammatory when displayed at meetings, rallies and demonstrations. Teachers all over the country use it to show they are ready to fight for better conditions
B.I.O.M.F, we’re going to fight racism till there’s nothing left

Pretty much the shit. Make sure you're clear on the fact that the word "the" is in there, or else you'll get the meaning all wrong. Iowa is home to the three million nicest people in the United States, probably in the world. A leader in education, and home to some of the most beautiful scenery into the world. It's a traquil beauty, and if you're into that, you'll love Iowa. And if you're not into that, you can go take California or wherever you're from and fuck it.
Person from Iowa: I love Iowa. Everyone there is so nice and there aren't obnoxiously long lines or large crowds.
Person from New Jersey: Well, we have the largest strip mall in the world.
Person from Iowa: Oh. I'm sorry.
Person from New Jersey: I really wish I was from Iowa
Person from one of the other 48 states: Me too.
