Synthesis of Thiazoline Compounds and their Mercurated Derivatives. Part II

Action of sym.-di-(p-tolyl) thiourea on various ketones and their derivatives has been studied in presence of iodine and the resulting thiazoline compounds have been mercurated. The position of the acetoxymercuri group in the molecule has been ascertained. Therese thiazoline compounds have been converted into their corres­ponding thiazolone derivatives. The fungicidal and bactericidal actions of these compounds have also been investigated
