Abstract
An improved preparation of mesoionic heterocycles 1,3-diazolium-4-thiolates by [3 + 2] cycloadditions of münchnones with aryl isothiocyanates is reported. The process takes place with high or complete regioselectivity, and fast and clean transformations are observed under microwave heating in DMF. DFT calculations support that this cycloaddition proceeds preferably through a stepwise mechanism. Given the pattern substitution around the mesoionic ring resulting in a push-pull system, theoretical estimations predict large hyperpolarizabilities in some cases, which is typical of molecules exhibiting nonlinear optical responses.
