Simple construction of fused and spiro nitrogen/sulfur containing heterocycles by addition of thioamides or thioureas on cycloalkenyl-diazenes: examples of click chemistry

Abstract

New 1-cycloalkenyl-1-diazenes have been obtained in good yields from cyclic β-ketoesters and hydrazine derivatives. They furnished new cycloalkyl[ d][1,3]thiazolines with thioamides or new spirocycloalkyl-thiazolinones with thioureas. Moreover they gave, with imidazolidine-2-thione and tetrahydropyrimidine-2-thione, new and interesting spiro[cycloalkyl-1,2′-imidazo[2,1- b][1,3]thiazole] or spiro[cycloalkyl-1,2′-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2- a]pyrimidine] derivatives, respectively. Cycloalkyl[ d][1,3]thiazolines were useful for the further preparation of unknown thia-triaza-tricyclo derivatives. Novel hexahydro-1,3-benzothiazoles have been achieved by reaction of N, N′-dialkylthioureas on N-1-phenyl-2-(1-cyclohexenyl)-1-diazene-1-carboxyamide. The acidic hydrolysis of spirocycloalkyl-thiazolinones produced 2-imino-5-(ω-carboxyalkyl)-4-thiazolidinones.
