Abstract
The rearrangement in acetic anhydride of 2,4-dimethylthiazole 3-oxide has been found to produce 2-acetoxymethyl-4-methylthiazole and 4-acetoxymethyl-2-methylthiazole in the ratio of about 4.5 to 1. The same type of rearrangement with 4-methylthiazole 3-oxide gave both 4-acetoxymethylthiazole and 2-acetoxy-4-methylthiazole, but in poor yields. The structure of the sulphate salt of 2,4-dimethylthiazole 3-oxide has been established.Keywords
