2-Acylmethylidene-3-methylthiazolines 3 (R = alkyl or aryl) are obtained from their precursor acids in one operation. Carboxylic acids 1 are activated with carbodiimide, and treated, in situ, in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, with 3-methyl-2-methylidene-4-thiazoline (6) (derived from thiazolium salt 2) to yield 2-acylmethylidene-3-methylthiazolines 3.
