Regioselective Syntheses of 3-Benzyl-Substituted 7H-Thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-7-ones through Palladium-Catalyzed Heteroannulation of Acetylenic Compounds
An efficient synthesis of 3-benzyl-substituted 7H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimine-7-ones in acetonitrile is accomplished via Pd- and Cu-catalyzed reaction of 2-mercaptopropargylpyrimidone with various aryl iodides in the presence of triethylamine as the base.
