Acetylenic ketones. Part V. Reaction of acetylenic ketones with thiourea and some of its derivatives

Aroylphenylacetylenes (I) reacted with thiourea and S-benzylisothiourea to give 4,6-diaryl-pyrimidine-2(1H)thiones (IV) and α-aroyl-β-benzylmercaptostyrenes (X), respectively. Methyla-tion and acetylation of the thiones (IV) gave the corresponding S-methyl- (V) and S-acetyl- (VI) derivatives, respectively. The oxidation of these thiones gave the corresponding disulfide derivatives (VII). Reaction of α-aroyl-β-benzylmercaptostyrenes (X) with hydrazine hydrate and phenylhydrazine gave 3(5)-aryl-5(3)-phenylpyrazoles (XI) and 3-aryl-1,5-diphenylpyrazoles (XIII), respectively. Reaction of aroylphenylacetylenes (1) with N-allylthiourea gave 1-allyl-4,6-diaryl-pyrimidine-2-thiones (XVI).
