Abstract
Cyclization of N‐methyl‐ and N‐benzoylpyridylthioureas, prepared from the corresponding aminopy‐ridines, has been realized using various conditions. With bromine in acetic acid or potassium ferricyanide, the cyclization occurred on the nitrogen of the pyridine ring and pyridinium salts or 1,2,4‐fhiadiazolo[2,3‐a]pyridylidene systems were obtained. On the other hand, treatment of the thioureas with sodium methoxide in N‐methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) led to formation of fhiazolo[4,5‐b] and [5,4‐b]pyridines, which are interesting targets for biological evaluation.
