Synthesis of new imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazole derivatives from 2-amino-4-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-1,3-thiazole and N-(2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)arenesulfonamides

Resumo

2-Amino-4-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-1,3-thiazole reacted with highly electrophilic N-(2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)- and N-(2,2,2-trichloroethylidene)arenesulfonamides through the exocyclic amino group to give products of nucleophilic addition to the azomethine bond, N-[2,2-di(or 2,2,2-tri)chloro-1-(1,3-thiazol-2-ylamino)ethyl]arenesulfonamides in good yields. Intramolecular heterocyclization of the latter afforded N-[3-(2,2-dichloroethyl)-6-phenylimidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazol-5-yl]arenesulfonamides.
