The reactions of ethyldiazoacetate with a series of 2-substituted thiophenes in the presence of catalytic rhodium (II) acetate were examined. In the cases of 2-methylthiophene and 2-(trimethylsilyl)thiophene, cyclopropane and thiopyran products predominated while thiophene-2-thiol and 2-(methylthio)thiophene gave rise to thiopyrans and ethyl 2-(2-thienylsulfanyl)acetate. No reaction was apparent when
