Synthesis of new functionalized imidazo[2,1‐b]thiazoles and thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidines

5‐Oxo‐5H‐1,3]thiazolo3,2‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxylic acid ( 4 ), and 6‐methylimidazo2,1‐b]thiazole‐5‐carboxylic acid ( 17 ) were reacted with amines 6a‐i by the reaction with oxalyl chloride and N, N‐di methyl‐formamide as a catalyst into primary and secondary amide derivatives 7‐14 and 19‐22. From compound 24 N,N'‐disubstituted ureas 26, 27 and perhydroimidazo1,5‐c]thiazole 29 derivatives of imidazo2,1‐b]thiazole were prepared. By nmr analysis of compound 29 , the existence of two stereoisomers resulting from both optical, due to centre of chirality at C7′a, and conformational isomerism, due to restricted C5? N6′ bond rotation were proved.
