Abstract
Abstract 3-Phenyl-3-amino-1H,3H-quinoline-2,4-diones (1) react with alkyl or aryl isothiocyanates to give novel 9b-hydroxy-3a-phenyl-1,2,3,3a-tetrahydro-2-thioxo-5H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4(9bH)-ones in high yields. These compounds rearrange in boiling acetic acid or concentrated hydrochloric acid to give novel 5-phenyl-2-thioxospiro[4H-imidazol-4,3′-[3H]indol]-2′(1′H,3H)-ones, 5-hydroxy-5-phenyl-2-thioxospiro[imidazolidine-4,3′-[3H]indol]-2′-ones and (2-methylaminophenyl)-5-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2(3H)-thiones. All compounds were characterized by their 1H, 13C, IR and MS data, and in some cases also by 15N NMR data. The structures and compositions of four compounds were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
