Popis: | Cyclization of tosylmethyl isocyanide with α-oxodithioesters in the presence of KOH is reported for the synthesis of 4-methylthio-5-acylthiazoles. Similarly, ethyl isocyanoacetate underwent cyclization with α-oxodithioesters to form 4-ethoxycarbonyl-5-acylthiazoles in the presence of DBU/EtOH. Mechanisms for the formation of thiazoles are proposed. These thiazoles can also be obtained by Takeda reaction, in which thiazole-4,5-anhydride is acylated with aromatic compounds followed by esterification; however, that approach requires two steps and suffers from the formation of a regioisomeric mixture of products. |
