“…The results obtained for compounds 4 and 5, as well as for the previously described 5-[(dimethylamino)methylidene]-4-(phenylamino)-1,3-thiazolin-2-one (Pyrih et al, 2023a) and its o/m/p-hydroxyphenyl (Pyrih et al, 2023b) and o/m/p-meth- for p-, m-and o-H atoms, respectively), and chemical shifts (ppm) for the C (upper value) and H (lower value) atoms of (a) 4 and (b) 5. oxyphenyl (Pyrih et al, 2024) derivatives, reveal an exceptionally high persistence of the amine tautomeric form in 4-(phenylamino)-1,3-thiazol-2(5H)-one derivatives, and the lack of influence of substituents located at the arene ring, irrespective of their position and electron-withdrawing prop-erties, on the equilibrium of the amine-imine proton tautomerism.…”
