Abstract

The cycloaddition of the newely synthesized 5-(2-thienyl)methylene derivatives of thiazolidinone-4-thiones,2a−c to acrylonitrile (3a), ethyl acrylate (3b), N-phenylmaleimide (6) and dimethyl fumarate (8) has been evaluated. Under thermal reaction conditions [4+2] cycloaddition proceeds with complete site and regioselectivity to yield the cycloadduct,4, 5, 7 and9, respectively. The antimicrobial activities of some of the new products were tested.
