Isothiazole 201a, synthesized from the isothiazol-5-thione 200 by dimethyl sulfate, reacted to the stable 7-cyano-6-methylthio-thiazolo[3,2-Z>]-isothiazolium perchlorate 202 in 77% yield in the presence of perchloric acid by cyclization (83M999, Scheme 71). In an aqueous base, the isothiazole ring of salt 202 was opened and 201a was regenerated. 

The reaction of 3-phenacylthio- (347) and 5-phenacylthio-isothiazolium salts 350 with triethylamine afforded 3-phenacylidenisothiazole 349 (39%) and isothiazol-5-thione 352 (50%) by deprotonation of the exocyclic methylene group (85BSB149, Scheme 117). 

The reaction of 2,5-dimethylisoxazoline-3-thione with 48% HBr produced, among other products, an isothiazole-3-thione, diisoxazole disulfide and 2,5-dimethylisoxazolin-3-one. In contrast, the reaction of 2-methyl-5-phenylisoxazoline-3-thione produced primarily disulfide 80CPB487). The reaction with H2S in 48% HBr produced an isothiazole-3-thione and a cyclic thiazole (Scheme 75) (80CPB487). 

Few isothiazoles undergo simple cycloaddition reactions. 4-Nitroisothiazoles add to alkynes (see Section 4.17.7.4). With 5-thiones (84) and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, addition to both sulfur atoms leads to 1,3-dithioles (85) (77SST(4)339, 80H(14)785, 81H(16)156, 81H(16)595). Isothiazol-3-one 1-oxide and the corresponding 1,1-dioxide give normal adducts with cyclopentadiene and anthracene (80MI41700), and saccharin forms simple 1 1 or 1 2 adducts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (72IJC(B)881). 

The 5-methylmercapto analog gave an isothiazole-3-thione which formed a quaternary isothiazole on treatment with methyl iodide (Scheme 23).64... 

Isothiazolium salts have been reconverted to isothiazoles by dry distillation27 and by treatment with ammonia.145 The latter reaction incidentally confirms that isothiazoles are alkylated on the nitrogen and not the sulfur. Isothiazolium salts with a vacant 3-position have given 3-thiones on treatment with sulfur in pyridine [Eq. (16)].63,64... 

Compound 553, obtained from Apple s salt 552 or from 4-chloro-l,2,3-dithiazole-5-thione, reacts with several nucleophiles affording highly functionalized 5-cyano isothiazoles 554 in a very short and simple synthesis from readily available materials <1997J(P 1)3345, 1998J(P1)77, 2002J(P1)1236>. 

Thiete structures have been suggested as fragmentation products in the mass spectra of a thietane fused to a 3-lactam, an ortho disulfide of a thiolbenzoate ester, -propanethiol, thiirane carboxylic acid esters, isothiazoles, thiazoles, 1,3-dithiole 2-thiones, 1,3-dithiolene-2-ones, S-ethyl thio-benzoate, and thianaphthene sulfones. Tetramethylthiete may have been formed on thermolysis of the p-toluenesulfonyl-hydrazone of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-thietanone. " Thiete 2-thione may be an intermediate in the decomposition of 1,2-ditholium salts by the action of bases. " 2,2-Diphenyl-2H-thiete is suggested as an intermediate in the reaction of diphenyldiazomethane with 1,2,3-benzo-thiadiazole which yields 9-phenylthioxanthene and three other products. ... 

Space group and unit cell dimensions are given for 4,5-diphenyl-l,2-dithiole-3-thione.266 The reaction product from 1,2-benzodithiolethione and hydroxylamine was originally ascribed the isothiazole structure 175.267 However, X-ray structure studies have shown it to be 1,2-benzodithiolone oxime. (176).268... 

Isothiazoles are reported to yield the lactam (101) on reaction with diphenyl ketene <85BSB149>. Ethyne dicarboxylate esters add to 2,1-benzisothiazole to generate quinoline esters (102), and benzyne reacts to yield aeridine <83H(20)489, 88JCS(Pl)2l4l>. 2-Methyl-2,l-benzisothiazolin-3-thione with acetylene esters forms 2-iminobenzoquinone methides (103), which dimerize to give diazocines (104) or further react with the ethyne ester to yield diadducts (105). The initial adduct formed with phenylethyne and 2-methyl-2,l-benzisothiazolin-3-thione rearranges to produce l,2-dithiole[3,26]... 

A one-pot synthesis of 4-substituted isothiazoles from I-acyl alkynes is described where sulfur is added as the last atom fragment (Scheme 27) <87H(26)1587,89H(29)97>. The reaction of ketones with carbon disulfide, sulfur, and ammonium hydroxide followed by treatment with acid gives the 3,4-dialkyl-substituted isothiazolin-5-thiones (Scheme 27) <79JCR(S)4I0,88BCJ4443>. 

Most 1,2-dithioles react with carbenes and nitrenes at the S—S bond, leading to insertion, and possible further loss of sulfur to form thiophenes or isothiazoles respectively (Scheme 9) <7474113, 76CJC3879). l,2-Dithiol-3-thiones (2b) usually react at the thione function, with the formation of thiiranes or thiaziranes respectively, which can extrude sulfur to form 3-methylene (2d) or 3-imino-... 

Reaction of 2-alkyl/aryl isothiazol-3(2//)-thiones 90 with various alkyl-halogenides gave the 3-iS -alkyl-substituted isothiazolium salts 25a,91 in good-to-very-good yields (70BSF3076, 73CJC3081, 93JHC929, Scheme 29). Several isothiazolium iodides 25a,91a-n, perchlorate 25a and chlorides 91o-v were also synthesized. The structure of 2-methyl-5-aryl-isothiazolium chloride 91q, isolated in 60% yield, was confirmed by X-ray analysis. The S-alkylated isothiazolium salts 25a,91 with yields and references are represented in Table 5. 

The, V-phenyl/-cyc 1 ohexy 1 isothiazol-5(277)-thiones 92a,b formed with methyl iodide the stable. S -methylisothiazolium halogenides 23b and 93a,b in very good yields (23b 73CJC3081 93a,b 66JPR312, Scheme 30). 

M e t h y 1 - i s o t h i azo 1 - 3 (2 //) - thiones 97 were prepared from the corresponding 2-methyl-isothiazol-3(2/7)-ones in toluene and oxalylchloride (81USP4281136, see also Schemes 55, 66). They reacted with sodium iV-chlorobenzenesulfonamide in ethanol and chloroform to produce sulfimides 98, sulfonamides 99 as well as sulfinamidinates 100 (96PS203, Scheme 32). The stability of the inner salts 98-100 increased from 98 < 99 < 100.
