Thiazolidin-5-Ones: Synthesis and Reactions

Abstract

Thiazolidin-5-ones and their derivatives have been long used as precursors for the synthesis of biologically active molecules. The general methods of preparations of thiazolidinones have been mentioned. The reactions of the title compounds are subdivided into groups that cover reactions to yield monoheterocycles.
