Abstract
Bromination and thiocyanation of 2-amino- and 2-acetylamino-4-(2-furyl)thiazoles when 1 mol of reagent is used at 10°C are directed to the 5 position. Formation of 5'-bromo-substituted derivatives when the reaction temperature is raised is the result of a secondary, thermodynamically controlled process. Monohalogenation and mononitration of 4-(2-furyl)-2-methylthiazole are directed to the 5' position. Nitration of 2-acetylamino-4-(5-nitro-2-furyl)thiazole by a nitrating mixture is accompanied by oxidative cleavage of the 5-nitrofuran moiety and leads to formation of 5,5'- and 3',5'-dinitro derivatives.
