Abstract

The reaction of 2,N-dilithiobenzothioamides, generated from readily available secondary benzothioamides and two equivalents of butyllithium, with isothiocyanates, followed by aqueous workup, gives the corresponding N1,N2-disubstituted benzene-1,2-dicarbothioamides, which undergo intramolecular attack of one of the thioamide nitrogen on the adjacent thiocarbonyl moiety with loss of primary amines to provide 2-substituted 1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dithiones.
