Under acidic conditions, the condensation of the bromoketones (I) and the thioureas (II) leads to mixtures of the aminothiazoles (III) and the 3‐substituted 2‐iminodihydrothiazoles (IV), whereas under neutral conditions only the aminothiazoles (III) are formed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
