Synthesis of Thiazolidine-2,5-dithiones: Characterisation of 4-Substituted Thiazolidinedithiones

A general method for the synthesis of a series of 4,4-disubstituted thiazolidine-2,5-dithiones (1)-(6) initially consisted in reactions of α-metallated aralkyl isothiocyanates with carbon disulphide. 4-Monosubstituted thiazolidine-2,5-dithiones (7)-(9) are very susceptible to oxidation, changing rapidly into their oxidative dimers.The reason for the unexpected methylation of thiazolidine dithiones (7)-(9) became evident from the results of MNDO calculations.
