Cyanoacetanilides intermediates in heterocyclic synthesis. Part 4: Preparation of some hitherto unknown thiazolidine and bisthiazolidine derivatives

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10426500701729554

Some novel thiazolidine and bisthiazolidine derivatives were synthesized from the reaction of cyanoacetanilide derivative (2) with isothiocyanates in the presence of potassium hydroxide followed by in situ heterocyclization of the resulting adducts with various α-halogenated reagents.
