Reaction of Di(tert‐butyl)‐ and Diphenyldiazomethane and 1,3‐Thiazole‐5(4__H__)‐thiones: Isolation and Crystal Structure of the Primary Cycloadduct

Reactions of diazo compounds with CS bonds proceed via the formation of thiocarbonyl ylides, which, under the reaction conditions, undergo either 1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions or electrocyclic ring closer to thiiranes (Scheme 1). With the sterically hindered di(tert‐butyl)diazomethane (2c), 1,3‐thiazole‐5(4__H__)‐thiones 1 react to give spirocyclic 2,5‐dihydro‐1,3,4‐thiadiazoles 3 (Scheme 2). These adducts are stable in solution at −20°, and they could be isolated in crystalline form. The structure of 3c was established by X‐ray crystallography. In CDCl~3~ solution at room temperature, a cycloreversion occurs, and the adducts of type 3 are in an equilibrium with 1 and 2c. In contrast, the reaction of 1 with diphenyldiazomethane (2d) gave spirocyclic thiiranes 4 as the only product in high yield (Scheme 3). The crystal structure of 4b was also determined by X‐ray analysis. The desulfurization of compounds 4 to 4,5‐dihydro‐5‐(diphenylmethylidene)‐1,3‐thiazoles 5 was achieved by treating 4 with triphenylphosphine in boiling THF. The crystal structure of 5f is shown.
