Abstract

Abstract Friedel–Crafts intramolecular cyclization in the presence of polyphosphoric acid of 2-substituted 5-phenylthiazole-4-carboxylic acids, which are obtained by alkaline hydrolysis of the corresponding esters, leads to indeno [2, 1-d] thiazoles. According to the X-ray diffraction data, packing of their molecules in crystal is determined mainly by intermolecular π–π contacts, regardless of the substituent nature.
