Synthesis and properties of 2-(2-furyl)benzothiazole

The electrophilic reactions (nitration, bromination, hydroxymethylation, formylation, acylation) and radical substitution reactions (nitration, arylation) of 2-(2-furyl)benzothiazole have been studied. It was found that all of the reactions occur at position 5 of the furan ring. Only nitration in PPA gave the 5',6-dinitro derivative. Quantum-chemical calculation data for the electron density distribution in the neutral and protonated 2-(2-furyl)benzothiazole molecules are given. Dedicated to Boris Aleksandrovich Trofimov on his 70^th jubilee. Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1331–1338, September, 2008.

The reactions of 2-amino-4-methyl-5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazole with excess methyl iodide leads to 3,4-dimethyl-2-methylamino-5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazolium iodide, which is converted to 2-imino-3,4-dimethyl-5-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazoline under the influence of bases.
