SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF BI- AND TRICYCLIC 1,3-THIAZOLINE/THIAZOLIDINE ASSEMBLIES LINKED BY AN EXOCYCLIC С=С DOUBLE BOND

Abstract
This review provides a generalized and systematized analysis of literature data from the last 15 years regarding the methods of synthesis and properties of bi- and tricyclic assemblies constructed from 1,3-thiazolidine/thiazoline rings that are linked by an exocyclic С=С double bond. Examples of such assemblies which are of interest as biologically active compounds, sensitizing dyes for solar cells, and semiconductors are considered in details. The literature data have been arranged according to the types of chemical structures.
