[New substituted 4-thioxothiazolidin-2-one derivatives: synthesis and structural study]

Synthesis and physico-chemical properties of some 3-benzyl- and 3-phenacyl-4-thioxo-5-benzylidenethiazolidin-2-one derivatives are described. Fifteen new compounds were synthesized from thiazolidin-2-one by thionation of the 4-carbonyle, alkylation of the 3-N and aldolisation-crotonisation of 5-CH(2) with aromatic aldehydes. Soon, these new compounds will be tested for their bacteriostatic activity.
