A visible-light-promoted cyclization and aromatization of chalcones with 2-mercaptobenzimidazoles has been successfully developed to obtain diverse imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles, and the C-S and C-N bonds were constructed in one step. The reaction...
This report describes the oxidative coupling reaction of dithiopyrimidines with phenylhydrazine hydrochlorides to synthesize a series of arylthiopyrimidine derivatives. The reaction does not require transition metals as catalysts, and uses organic dye rose bengal as photocatalyst and air as oxidant. The reaction conditions are mild and meet the requirements of green chemistry. In addition, the method has a wide scope of substrates and good tolerance of functional groups. The control experiment showed that the reaction may be a free radical mechanism, and the molecular weight of the intermediate was captured by high‐resolution mass spectrometry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
