A rapid one-pot synthesis of 3-alkyl-5-[(Z)-arylmethylidene]-1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-diones is described that occurs in recyclable ionic liquid [bmim]PF6 (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate). Significant rate enhancement and good selectivity have been observed.

The novel regiospecific and general reduction of 5-benzylidene-2,4- thiazolidinediones and 5-benzylidene-4-oxo-2-thiazolidinethiones to the corresponding 5-benzyl derivatives has been accomplished using lithium borohydride in pyridine and tetrahydrofuran. Sodium borohydride and lithium chloride can also be used under these conditions, which represents a cheaper alternative to lithium borohydride. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
