The synthesis of the isomeric 6(5)-phenyl-5(6)-pyridyl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles are described. Only the synthesis of 5-phenyl-6-(2-pyridyl)-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole failed.     

Heteroarylation of 6-Aryl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole with N-(Ethoxycarbonyl)heteroaromatic Salts

The ethyl chloroformate salts of a variety of benzo-fused six membered π-deficient heteroaromatics, including quinoline, isoquinoline, 4-chloroquinoline, 3-bromoquinoline, phthalazine, and quinazoline, reacted with 6-aryl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole at the 5-position. The dihydroheteroaromatic adducts were oxidized by o-chloranil, sulfur, or electrochemical methodology to form the 5-heteroaromatic-6-aryl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles, 10-15 . In each example, the regiochemistry of addition to the heteroaromatic ring was established.     

Synthesis of quaternary 3-(1,3-dioxo-1H-isoindol-2-ylmethyl)-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazolium salts

The reaction of dihydroimidazole-2-thiol with N-(3-chloro-2-oxopropyl)phthalimide gave 2-[3-(4,5-dihydroimidazol-2-ylsulfanyl)-2-oxopropyl]-1,3-dioxo-1H-isoindole which underwent intramolecular heterocyclization to dihydroimidazothiazole system by the action of a dehydrating agent. Treatment of 3-(1,3-dioxo-1H-isoindol-2-ylmethyl)-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole with concentrated hydrochloric acid led to the formation of dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-3-ylmethanamine. Water-soluble quaternary 3-(1,3-dioxo-1H-isoindol-2-ylmethyl)-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazolium salts were obtained by alkylation of 3-(1,3-dioxo-1H-isoindol-2-ylmethyl)-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole with alkyl halides.

The alkylation, acylation, halogenation, nitration, oxidation, and hydrolysis reactions of 8-cyano-5-phenyl-7-trifluoromethyl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine have been studied. It was found that the 6-halo derivatives add alcohol to give covalent solvates. X-ray analysis has been carried out on one of the solvates (6-chloro-8-cyano-7-ethoxy-5-phenyl-7-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,7-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine) as well as on 8-cyano-5-phenyl-7-trifluoromethyl-2,3-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine trifluoroacetate.

Dérives de l'imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole. V. Transposition allylique observée au cours de la synthése d'(imino-2 alkyl-3 thiazolinyl-4) acetates d'ethyle et de (dihydro-5,6 imidazo[2,1-b]thiazolyl-3) acetates d'éthyle

Ethyl (6-phenyl-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-3-yl) acetate hydrobromide shows an allylic transposition in alkaline medium and gives ethyl (6-phenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-3-ylidene)acetate. This compound possesses an exocyclic double bond which is stable upon acidification. The intermediate ethyl (2-imino-3-alkylthiazolin-4-yl)-acetates undergo an analogous transposition upon treatment with base, which is reversible upon acidification. These transpositions were observed in the pmr data. The steric constraint and π p π conjugation are discussed in this work.

High Throughput Synthesis of 2,3,6-Trisubstituted-5,6-Dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole Derivatives

A facile approach to the synthesis of 2,3,6-trisubstituted-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole was reported. A resin bound cyclic thiourea was formed by the treatment of a resin bound diamine with 1,1′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole, and then reacted with a α-haloketone to generate a resin bound isothiourea. HF treatment of the resin bound isothiourea resulted in the cleavage of the product and simultaneous formation of an enamine bond. This led to the formation of the 2,3,6-trisubstituted-5,6-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazole in high yield and purity.

Discrimination between the two isomers was established on the basis of spectral analyses.

A series of N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-6-substituted naphtho[2,1-b]thiophenes-4-carboxamides have been synthesized. 6-Substituted naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene-4-carboxylic acids were obtained upon oxidative-photo-cyclization of α-(2-thienyl)-β-arylacrylic acids. The naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene carboxylic acids were converted to the corresponding amides through their acid chlorides or, in one case, by use of 1,1-carbonyldiimidazole coupling of the amine and the acid.

The conversion of the 5-bromoimidazo[2, 1-b]-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole Ib to the 5-cyano derivative Ic is firstly described. The 5-nitroimidazo[2, 1-b]-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole Id is smoothly reduced by aluminium amalgam to the 5-imino-5, 6-dihydroimidazo[2, 1-b]-1, 3, 4-thiadiazole II. However, reaction of Id with sodium dithionite unexpectedly gives 1, 3, 4-thiadiazoles III and V depending upon conditions.     

Preparation of imidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(3H)-ones and related tricyclic systems using a novel,double displacement reaction

New methodology is described for the construction of tricyclic heterocycles. Thus, a double displacement reaction of l-(2-fluorobenzoyl)-2-methylthio-2-imidazoline ( 8a ) with 1,1-dialkylhydrazines gave 10-substituted 2,10-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(3H)-ones in good yield. The corresponding 1-(2-nitrobenzoyl)-2-meth-ylthio-2-imidazolines also underwent double displacement reactions with hydrazines. Other tricyclics made using double displacement reactions were pyrimido[2,1-b]quinazolines, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines, and imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines. Treatment of 8a with hydrazine hydrate or methylhydrazine gave products resulting from displacement, but did not afford fused benzotriazepinones.
