Abstract

Abstract 2??Alkylthio??3??alkyl??5??phenylmethylidene??4 H??imidazol??4??ones 6 were synthesized by N??alkylation and S??alkylation of 2??thioxo??5??phenylmethylidene??4?? imidazolidinone 5, which was obtained via cyclization of vinyl isothiocyanate 4 with excess ammonium hydroxide (28% NH3 in water).
