In this chapter we intend to outline the general methods by which the thiazolic ring is synthetized from open-chain compounds. The conversion of one thiazole compound to another is not discussed here, but in appropriate later chapters. Thus the conversion of thiazole carboxylic acids, halogeno-, amino-, hydroxy-, and mercaptothiazoles, to the corresponding unsubstituted thiazoles is treated in Chapters IV through VII, respectively. 

In reality all carbon atoms share equally the pool of electrons which constitute the double bonds and benzene resists addition across the double bonds which would otherwise destroy its unique structure and stability. Single or multiple hydrogen atoms can be substituted to form a host of derivatives containing similar functional groups to those above, e.g. saturated and unsaturated aliphatic chains, amino, carboxylic acidic, halogeno, nitro, and sulphonic acid groups as shown in Table 3.6.

The Reformatsky Reaction consists of the interaction of an ester of an a-halogeno-acid with an aldehyde, a ketone or another ester in the presence of zinc. For example, if a mixture of ethyl bromoacetate and benzaldehyde is heated with zinc, the latter undoubtedly first combines with the ethyl bromoacetate to form a Grignard-like reagent (reaction A), which then adds on to the benzaldehyde Just as a Grignard reagent would do (reaction B). The complex so formed, on acidification gives ethyl p-phenyl-p-hydroxy-propionate (reaction C). Note that reaction A could not satisfactorily be carried out using...

The use of a reagent bearing a basic center or the addition of a base to the reaction mixture was recognized as necessary to prevent the acid-catalyzed elimination of the elements of water from the intermediates. Since the publication of this work, a number of similar intermediates have been isolated from thioamides and a-halogeno carbonyl compounds (608, 609, 619, 739, 754, 801), and as a result of kinetic studies, the exact mechanism of this reaction has been well established (739, 821). 

Other interactions of /3-lactams with electrophiles include the oxidative decarboxylation of the azetidin-2-one-4-carboxylic acid (85) on treatment with LTA and pyridine (81M867), and the reaction of the azetidin-2-one-4-sulfinic acid (86) with positive halogen reagents. This affords a mixture of cis- and trans-4-halogeno-/3-lactams (87), the latter undergoing cyclization to give the bicyclic /3-lactam (88) (8UOC3568). 

In a similar base-catalyzed eyclization, Smrt et obtained a high yield of the pyrrolidone (21) from a y-halogeno-a-aminobutyro-hydroxamie acid and were unable to isolate any of the six-membered ring compound (22). 

A few studies on solvolyses by alcohols and by water are available. The hydrolyses studied include displacement of alkylamino groups from acridine antimalarials and of halogen from other systems. In all cases, these reactions appeared to be first-order in the heterocyclic substrate. By a detailed examination of the acid hydrolysis of 2-halogeno-5-nitropyridine, Reinheimer et al. have shown that the reaction rate varies as the fourth power of the activity of water, providing direct evidence that the only reactive nucleophile is neutral water, as expected. 

The usual order found with halogenonitrobenzenes is F > Cl Br I, the order of Cl and Br being variable, just as in heteroaromatic reactivity. The position of fluorine is of interest the available data indicate that it is usually the same as for nitrobenzene derivatives. Thus, in acid hydrolysis the order F > Cl for 2-halogeno-quinolines can be deduced beyond doubt since the fluoro derivative appears to react in the non-protonated form and the chloro derivative to resist hydrolytic attack even in the protonated form under appropriate conditions (Section II,D, l,d). Furthermore, in the benzo-thiazole ring, fluorine is displaced by the CHgO reagent at a rate 10 times that for chlorine. ... 

The member of this class which has been studied most thoroughly is 2-benzylidene-4-methyl-5(2 )-oxazolone (57). This compound may be prepared by ring closure of either 3-bromo-2-phenylacetamido-propionic acid or A-(a-halophenylacetyl)alanine (56) [Eq. (30)]. These reactions presumably proceed via unstable halogeno-5(4IT)-oxazolones, which rapidly lose hydrogen halide. 

Simple isothiazole-4-carboxylic acids have been made from the corresponding nitriles, which are available in turn from the halogeno derivatives, or directly by the olefin route.5-Aminoiso-thiazole-4-esters and -nitriles are readily obtained by the thioamide route. The 4-acids behave normally and form acid chlorides, esters, amides, and hydrazides. In contrast to the 5-series... 

The catalytic effect of protons has been noted on many occasions (cf. Section II,D,2,c) and autocatalysis frequently occurs when the nucleophile is not a strong base. Acid catalysis of reactions with water, alcohols, mercaptans, amines, or halide ions has been observed for halogeno derivatives of pyridine, pyrimidine (92), s-triazine (93), quinoline, and phthalazine as well as for many other ring systems and leaving groups. An interesting displacement is that of a 4-oxo group in the reaction of quinolines with thiophenols, which is made possible by the acid catalysis.
