Abstract

Coupling of 5-dimethylaminomethylene-3-methyl-2-(pyridine-2-ylimino)-thiazolidin-4-one (3) with diazotized methyl anthranilate afforded the 3-methyl-5-(2-methoxycarbonylphenylhydrazono)-2-pyridine-2-ylimino)thiazolidin-4-one (5). Reaction of 2-(arylamino)thiazol-4-ones 1a,b with arylidenemalononitriles under microwave irradiation gave 2-substituted amino-5-arylidenethiazolin-4-ones 9a–f. Alternatively, compound 9 could also be obtained by reacting compound 1 with aromatic aldehydes. Treatment of compound 9 with acetic acid yielded the corresponding thiazolin-2,4-diones 10. However, the reaction of 1 with cyanoacetic acid yielded the corresponding 4-cyanoacetyl derivative 12, in good yield. The 1H, 13C NMR spectra of some representative products and X-ray crystal structure determination are discussed.
