Methyl trans-2,3-epoxyhexadecanoate (I; R'=COOCH3) when refluxed with thioacetamide in DMF affords 5(4)-carbomethoxy-2-methyl-4(5)-tridecyl-2-thiazoline (V) along with three unexpected products, viz. methyl cis-2-hexadecenoate (II), methyl trans-2-hexadecenoate (III) and pentadecan-2-one(IV).Similar reaction of 1 with thiourea gives 2-amino-4-carbomethoxy-5-tridecyl-2-thiazoline (VI) and 2-amino-5-tridecylmethylene-2-thiazolin-4-one (4-thiazolinone) (VII) along with the products II, III and IV.
