Abstract
The reaction of thiiranes with hydrozones leads primarily to 2-mercaptoalkylhydrazones that are capable of undergoing reversible isomerization to the corresponding perhydro-1,3,4-thiadiazines or (in the case of unsubstituted aldohydrazones) to 3-aminothiazolidines. The reaction mixtures, which contain products of side and secondary reactions, were analyzed by Chromatographic mass spectrometry. It is shown that the principal products of mercaptoethylation and mercaptopropylation of acetone hydrazone exists in the form of tautomeric mixtures of chain and ring forms and that the introduction of a methyl substituent in the 6 position of the ring leads to a shift of the equilibrium to favor the perhydro-1,3,4-thiadiazine.
