“…Thienylthiourea derivatives 2a-h were prepared by condensation of the amino esters 1a-c with alkyl or aryl isothiocyanates, either by heating at reflux or under microwave irradiation [8,9,13]; the latter method afforded higher yields of the desired products in a shorter time. 4 p -Cl-C 6 H 4 c (CH 2 ) 4 (CH 2 ) 3 CH 3 d (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 )CH 2 C 6 H 5 e (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 )CH 2 p -Cl-C6H4 f (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 )CH 2 (CH 2 ) 3 CH 3 g (CH 2 ) 5 C 6 H 5 h (CH 2 ) 5 p -Cl-C6H4 R 1 R 2 R 3 a (CH 2 ) 4 C 6 H 5 b (CH 2 ) 4 p -Cl-C 6 H 4 c (CH 2 ) 4 (CH 2 ) 3 CH 3 d (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 )CH 2 p -Cl-C 6 H 4 e (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 )CH 2 (CH 2 ) 3 CH 3 f (CH 2 ) 5 C 6 H 5 g (CH 2 ) 5 p -Cl-C 6 H 4 a (CH 2 vi) p -Cl-C 6 H 4 NCS, acetonitrile, reflux, 20h iii) phenylthiourea, EtOH, microwave (MW), 20 sec. vii) R-X, EtOH, reflux, 1-8h iv) KOH, EtOH, reflux, 2-6h Compounds 2a,d were also prepared by condensation of the amino esters 1a,b with phenylthiourea under microwave irradiation.…”
