Abstract:
Bromination of (2E)-3-aryl(hetaryl)-2-[4-aryl(hetaryl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]acrylonitriles proceeds regioselectively at the C5 atom of the thiazole ring with the formation of new (2E)-3-aryl(hetaryl)-2-[5-bromo-4-aryl(hetaryl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]acrylonitriles. The latter were alternatively obtained by the reaction of aldehydes,cyanothioacetamide, α-bromoketones and bromine in the presence of triethylamine in DMF. Structure of the keycompounds was confirmed using 2D NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
