Abstract

Hantzsch condensation of 2-bromoacetophenones with thiourea or selenourea enables a simple, fast, and eco-friendly solvent-free synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles and 2-amino-1,3-selenazoles without the use of a catalyst. Reactions proceed to completion in a few seconds and products are obtained in good yields after easy workup.
