Abstract:
By exploring an efficient and versatile method for the 6-functionalization of its scaffold, we investigated the opening of a new chemical space around benzylidenethiazolidine-2,4-dione (BTZD). The 6-chloro- and 6-formyl BTZD obtained in two steps starting from 5-lithioTZD were selected as key intermediates and involved in a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling or Wittig olefination. A variety of aryl, heteroaryl, or alkenyl substituents was successfully introduced on the vinylic position of BTZD, and particular attention was paid to elucidate the stereochemistry of the benzylidene derivatives by using a combined DFT/NMR study.

For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
