ChemInform Abstract: Reactivity of 2-Thiazolylhydrazonomalononitrile Toward Carbon and Nitrogen Nucleophilic Reagents: Applications to the Synthesis of New Heterocycles

2-Thiazolylhydrazonomalononitrile (1) was used as key intermediate for the synthesis of polyfunctionally substituted heterocycles (e.g. pyridazine, tetrazole, pyrimidines, 1,5-benzo diazepine, benzoimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine, pyrazole, pyrazolo[1,5-a]triazines, pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 1,5-benzoxazocine) incorporating thiazole moiety via its reactions with some carbon and nitrogen nucleophiles. Structures of the newly synthesized compounds were established by elemental analysis and spectral data. The mechanistic aspects for the formation of the new compounds were also discussed.
