Abstract
Abstract 5-Benzoyl-3-isothiazolinones are obtained when β-benzoylpropionamides are heated with thionyl chloride. Some reactions of 5-benzoyl-2-phenyl-3-isothiazolinone are described, the most interesting being that with dimethyl and diethyl malonate carbanions, in which ring opening, loss of sulphur, and subsequent ring closure occur, leading to maleimide derivatives.
