S-methylation of N-containing heterocyclic thiols with conjugated acids of methoxy groups

2-Mercaptopyridine-3-carboxylic acid reacts with methanol under acidic conditions to afford the corresponding S-methylated methyl ester, methyl 2-methylthiopyridine-2-carboxylate. Such S-methylation occurred for various N-containing heterocyclic thiols wi

Applications of 15N NMR to a Study of Tautomerism in Some Monocyclic Azoles

15N NMR shielding measurements reveal that thiolo-imidazole and -tetrazole exist almost entirely as the thione form.Quantitative estimates of the position of tautomerism in 1,2,3-triazole and tetrazole are obtained.The reported assignments are supported by means of INDO/S-SOS shielding calculations.
