Abstract

The cycloaddition of the newely synthesized 5-(2-thienyl)methylene derivatives of thiazolidinone-4-thiones, 2a-c to acrylonitrile (3a), ethylacrylate (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 and 9, respectively. The antimicrobial activities of some of the new products were tested.
