4-Methyl-2-thiazolidinethione

Description:

4-Methyl-2-thiazolidinethione, with the CAS number 1437-89-4, is a heterocyclic compound characterized by a five-membered ring containing both sulfur and nitrogen atoms. This compound features a thiazolidine structure, which includes a thiazole ring fused with a carbon chain that has a methyl group at the 4-position. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents. The presence of the thione functional group (–C=S) contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and cyclization processes. 4-Methyl-2-thiazolidinethione has applications in medicinal chemistry, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals, due to its biological activity, which may include antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in organic synthesis, facilitating the creation of more complex molecules. As with many sulfur-containing compounds, it may exhibit distinct odor characteristics, which can be relevant in handling and storage considerations.

4-Methyl-1,3-thiazolidine-2-thione is a selective disulfide reductase with metal halide and cycloaddition activity. It catalyzes the reaction of alkali metal with carbon disulfide to form aziridine. The reaction proceeds through two steps: in the first step, alkali metal is reduced by carbon disulfide to form an alkyl radical; in the second step, the alkyl radical reacts with carbon disulfide to form aziridine. 4-Methyl-1,3-thiazolidine-2-thione has been shown to be an efficient catalyst for this reaction and can also catalyze cycloadditions between urethane and aziridine.
