Aminothiazoles structure

N-Methyl-2-acetamidothiazole is representative of the 2-aminothiazole structure, absorbing at 1542 and 1648 cm its isomeric imino counterpart, 2-acetylimino-3-methyl-4-thiazoline (16), has only one band at 1588 cm . As all acetylated 2-aminothiazoles absorb at 1535 and 1650 cm their amino structure is clearly established (105. 121). 

Thus in neutral medium the reactivity of 2-aminothiazoles derivatives toward sp C electrophilic centers usually occurs through the ring nitrogen. A notable exception is provided by the reaction between 2-amino-thiazole and a solution (acetone-water, 1 1) of ethylene oxide (183) that yields 2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)thiazole (39) (Scheme 28), Structure 39... 

These methods are now obsolete in comparison with spectroscopic methods. Werbel has shown that the structures of these isomers are easily determined by NMR (125) (see also Table VI-5). Furthermore. 2-imino-4-thiazoline derivatives are characterized by their stretching C=N vibration at 1580 cm , absent in their 2-aminothiazole isomers, and by the stretching NH vibration that appears in the range of 3250 to 3310 cm for the former and between 3250 to 3340 cm" for the latter (131). Ultraviolet spectroscopy also differentiates these isomers (200). They can be separated by boiling in ethanol the thiazoline isomer is usually far less soluble in this solvent (131),... 

Nucleophilic addition of 2-aminothiazole to the double bond of di-maleic acid hydrazine has been reported (206). No spectroscopic proof, however, is given to establish the proposed structure (60) for the resulting product (Scheme 41). 

Both carbonyl groups of terephthaldehyde are reported to react with the exocyclic nitrogen of 2-aminothiazole yielding 1.4-phenylene bis(2-methyleneamino)thiazole. The same report describes the reactions of 2-amino-4-phenylthiazole with terephth aldehyde and salicylaldehyde as yielding 64 and 65, respectively (Scheme 45) (215), whose structures are based on ultraviolet and infrared spectra. 

Condensation of (chloroformyl)-sulfur chloride with 2-aminOthiazole gives a product (170) whose structure was established by X-ray analysis (Scheme 108) (352-354). 

Treating 5.5 g of 2-amino-4,5-dimethylthiazole HCl with 0.66 g of solid sodium hydroxide 15 min at 220°C yields 53% of 4.4. 5.5 -tetramethyT 2,2 -dithiazolylamine, whose structure w as proved by identification with the produa obtained from the reaction between dithiobiuret and 3-bromo-2-butanone (467). This result is comparable to the reaction between 2-aminopyridine and its hydrochloride to yield bis(pyridyl-2)amine (468). Gronowitz applied this reaction to 2-aminothiazole, refluxing it with its hydrochloride 4 hr in benzene and obtained the dimeric 2-aminothiazole (236). He proposed a mechanism (Scheme 143) that involves the addition of a proton to the 5-position of the ring to give 234. The carbocation formed then reacts on the 5-position of a second... 

Co(II), Ni(n), Cu(n), and Zn(II) complexes of Schiff bases derived from 4-aryl-2-aminothiazoles and salicylaldehyde have been prepared, and structure 276 (Scheme 170) was established by magnetic susceptibility measurements and by infrared, electronic, and mass spectra (512). 

An interesting set of central nervous system properties has also been discovered and studied (Table VI-10). The work devoted to piscaine must be emphasized besides finding hypnotic properties of 2-amino-4-phenyl-thiazole on fish, the authors studied the structure of the metabolite, as well as the localization of the (radio labeled) metabolic product in various organs. Recently, thiazol-4-yl methoxyamine was shown to inhibit the development of morphine tolerance (1607). 5-Aminothiazole derivatives such as 419a were proposed as cardiovascular agents (1608, 1610). Substitution of the 5-aminothiazole radical on the cephalophosphorin structure gives a series of antibacterial products (1609). 

In 1889, Popp (104) confirmed the structure of 2-aminothiazole (72) by diazotization and reduction he obtained thiazole itself (73). 

Heterocyclic amino compounds including, for instance, 2-aminothiazoles or 2-amino-benzothiazoles, which contain a nitrogen in the ring capable of forming tautomeric structures, yielded the corresponding amides, although in general in lower than usual yield 11381... 

The previously published results [142, 143] devoted to the synthesis of thiazolo [3,2-a]imidazol-2-ones attracted attention of Krasovskii et al. [144] to synthesize corresponding ylidene derivates and to investigate biological activities, promising to be interesting for the medicinal chemistry. By heating 2-aminothiazoles with ethyl bromacetate and a variety of aromatic aldehydes at the appropriate temperature (either 80°C or reflux) in the glacial acetic acid with anhydrous sodium acetate, ylidene derivates of structures 102-104 were isolated (Scheme 48). 

Nizatidine Nizatidine is N-[2-[[[2-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-4-thiazolyl]methyl] thio] ethyl]-2-nitro-l,l-ethenediamine (16.2.15). According to its chemical structure, nizatidine is somewhat of a hybrid structure of ranitidine and famotidine, in which a side chain of ranitidine and carrying heterocycle, 2-aminothiazol, are used. Likewise, its synthesis also is a specific combination of pathways used for making both prototype drugs. 2-(Dimethyl-aminomethyl)-4-hydroxymethylthiazol serves as the initial compound, from which the desired nizatidine (16.2.15) is synthesized by subsequent reaction with 2-mercaptoethy-lamine hydrochloride and then with iV-methyl-l-methythio-2-nitroethenamine [71,72]. 

The addition of DMAD to 2-aminothiazole (25) gave 26, whereas propiolic ester gave 27, 28 and 29, all derived by Michael-type additions.549 Dunwell and Evans550,551 have also added acetylenic esters to 2-amino- (and 2-amino-4-methyl)thiazole and obtained 26 and 27 from DMAD and EP, and similar compounds from tetrolic and phenyl-propiolic esters. By independent synthesis, these compounds were shown not to have the isomeric structures derived by initial addition to the exocyclic nitrogen. 

As described above, a series of 5-pyridylaminothiazoles had been designed and synthesised as highly potent and selective antagonists at the adenosine A3 receptor (Press et al. 2004). It was essentially an extension of the structure-activity relationship to involve 5-imidazo and 5-triazolo substituted aminothiazoles which enabled the rapid identification of several dual A2B/A3 receptor antagonists with acceptable selectivity over the A and A2a receptors. Of the lead compounds, the mesylate salt of 3-[5-(meth-ylimidazol-l-yl)-2-(pyrazin-2-ylamino)-thiazol-4-yl benzonitrile (QAF805) was considered to be the superior compound (Compound 5f - Press et al. 2005). 

Reactions of hydrazonoyl halides with thiourea and selenourea were reported to give products that depend on the structure of the halide used. Thus, while reactions of thiourea with C-heteroacyl-N-arylhydrazonoyl halides 30e and 34 yield the corresponding 5-arylazo-2-aminothiazole derivatives 282a and b [88PS(40)243 90MI3], its reaction with the halide 28b gives 5-iminothiadiazoline derivatives 283 (88MI1).
