Transformations of methyl L-(-)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate, 2-amino-2-thiazoline and 2-aminothiazole into thiazoloazines and azolothiazoles

In the search for potential immunomodulators methyl L(-)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate (2), 2-amino-2-thiazoline (12), and 2-aminothiazole (19) were transformed into derivatives of various bicyclic systems. Thus, from compound 2 derivatives of perhydrothiazolo[3,4-a]pyrazine 4 and 5, perhydrothiazolo[4,3-c]-[1,4]oxazine 7, and perhydroimidazo[1,5-c]thiazole 9a,b, from compound 12 derivatives of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine 13a,b, and from compound 19 derivatives of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole 21, 22, 24, and 25 were prepared. 6-(p-Sulfamoylphenyl)-7-oxoperhydroimidazo[1,5-c]thiazole-5-thione (9a) was found to exhibit immunorestoration activity.
