Methyl 3-(Quinolin-2-yl)indolizine-1-carboxylate
A novel compound, methyl 3-(quinolin-2-yl)indolizine-1-carboxylate (2) has been synthesized by cycloaddition reaction of 1-(quinolin-2-ylmethyl)pyridinium ylide (1) with methyl propiolate in presence of sodium hydride in THF. The structure of this compound was established by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS data

Reaction of carbon disulfide with 2-bromoimidazolium salts. Novel bicyclic mesoionic thiazolo[3,2-a]imidazoles
A new class of thiazolo[3,2-a]imidazole derivatives is obtained in good yields, by reacting 1-methyl-2-bromoimidazolium salts bearing N+-CH2COAr, N+-CH2COMe, N+-CH2COOMe, or N+-CH2CN fragments, with carbon disulfide in the presence of Et3N at room temperature. The mesoionic structures of these compounds are established by NMR spectroscopy and by single-crystal X-ray analysis.
