Abstract
The synthesis of the title compound 1e was achieved by an easy threeβstep procedure from 1,3,5βbenzenetriol (1a, phloroglucinol). Compound 1a was Cβmethylated using MeI. The crude mixture obtained was acetylated to give 1d which was converted into 1e using BF~3~ AcOH complex. Benzylation of the latter with benzyl chloride afforded the new nonβaromatic compound 2. Reaction of 2 with NaOH and benzoyl chloride (Scheme 1) gave the new compound 4. Its structure was established by Xβray analysis.

The novel and versatile cyanomethyl 2amino-4-methylthiazolyl ketone (5) was prepared by treatment of bromomethyl 2-amino-4-methyl thiazolyl ketone (4) with potassium cyanide. Reaction of 5 with heterocyclic diazonium salts 6a,b and 10 afforded the corresponding hydrazones 7a,b and 11, respectively.
