Ketene S,S-acetals 2 react with 2-amino-1-ethanethiol to afford the substituted 2-methylenethiazolidines 3. The structure of these products as ketene N,S-acetals is confirmed by spectroscopic data. Compounds 3a-f react with esters of α,β-unsaturated acids to give thiazolo[3,2-a] pyrid-5-one derivatives 4, 6, and 7 through an electrophilic addition and cyclocondensation sequences.
