An earlier procedure for the facile preparation of benzo-fused 1,5-dithiocins 2a-2c from o-mercapto- benzaldehydes has been improved and shown to be capable of extension to the preparation of several naphthalene-derived analogues. The general method also afforded several N-alkylated 1,5-dithiocins 4, 5 by replacing NH3 with the appropriate primary amine. It was found that N-acylation of the 1,5-dithiocins was successful only with methyl chloroformate. Attempted N-phenylation met with limited success but was shown to be unnecessary since even the less reactive aniline readily undergoes the general reaction of primary amines. When simple α-amino acids, or their methyl esters, were employed as the primary amine in the reaction with o-mercaptobenzaldehyde, the formation of the N-alkylated 1,5-dithiocins 4a, 17a,17b with accompanying loss of -COOH or -COOMe was observed, in preparatively useful yields. A mechanism is proposed for this interesting transformation.Key words: 1,5-dithiocins, α-amino acids, N-acylation, decarboxylation.

One-pot three-component condensation of isatoic anhydride with primary amines or ammonium carbonate and aromatic aldehydes in refluxing ethanol in the presence of catalytic amounts of silica-supported preyssler nanoparticles (SPNP) afforded the corresponding 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones in high yields, and bis-dihydroquinazolinones were synthesized for the first time by a novel pseudo-five-component condensation of isatoic anhydride, a primary amine, and a dialdehyde in water. The catalyst is reusable and can be applied several times without any decrease in product yield.

AbstractThiazolidine-2-thiones were prepared via a novel multicomponent reaction of primary amines (amino acids), carbon disulfide, and γ-bromocrotonates. The reaction proceeds via a domino alkylation/intramolecular Michael addition to provide the corresponding thiazolidine-2-thiones in high to excellent yields. By using diamines in this protocol, bis(thiazolidine-2-thiones) derivatives were synthesized. The synthetic utility of the adducts was demonstrated by hydrolysis, amidation, and oxidation reactions.

α-Amino acids and α-amino methyl esters are easily converted to their N-monoalkyl derivatives by a reductive condensation reaction using several carbonyl compounds in the presence of sodium borohydride. This reducing agent has shown a wide versatility with minor but essential procedural variations. The reaction allows the α-monodeuterium labeling of the new N-substituent by use of sodium borodeuteride.Key words: α-amino acid, α-amino methyl esters, sodium borohydride, reductive N-monoalkylation, carbonyl compounds.
