Abstract

A new and efficient method for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles 3, 2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones 4 and 2,3-dihydro-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines 5 has been developed. The reactions of N′-(4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylamidines 1 with α-halogenoketones, acid chlorides or acrylic dienophiles were performed, leading to the title products.
