Abstract

The interaction of 5-acetyl(or formyl)-3-R1(CH3, H)-4-R2(CH3, Ph, H)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-thiones with 2-bromo-4′-X(CH3, OCH3, Br, H)-acetophenones leads to a mixture of products: 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a][1,5]benzodiazepinium salts and S-[2-oxo-2-(4-X-phenyl)ethyl] 3-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propane(or butane-)thioate hydrobromides. The course of the concurrent reactions depends on the presence of substituents of the starting thiones and on the nature of the 4-substituent of the bromoacetophenones. Semiempirical Austin method 1 (AM1) and density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP computational studies for the interpretation of two concurrent reaction pathways are presented.
