Abstract
Eighteen new derivatives of rhodanine were obtained by the reaction of 3-β-carboxyethylrhodanine with various oxo-compounds. The condensation proceeded fairly readily in glacial acetic acid with enanthaldehyde, acetal, diacetyl, pyruvic acid, furfural, anthraquinone, β-chloroanthraquinone, isatin, 5-bromoisatin, acenaphthenequinone, isobutyraldehyde, cyclopentanone, and cyclohexanone. The condensations with acetone, ethyl methyl ketone, acetoacetic ester, acetophenone, and 2-acetylnaphthalene were carried out by heating in ammoniacal solution.
