Introduction Carbohydrazide and thiocarbohydrazide are hydrazine derivatives of carbonic and thiocarbonic acids. Although in general thiocarbohydrazides are more widely used in heterocyclic synthesis than thioureas, both types contain the functional group RNHCSNHR. Substituted thiobiureas (RNHCONHNHCSNHR) are key to the synthesis of many organic heterocyclic ring systems. Several authors have investigated under various conditions the heterocyclization of 1acylthiobiurea,1 1,6-disubstituted 2,5-dithiobiureas,2 and 1-aryl/alkyl-2-thiobiureas.3 Also, the heterocyclization of compounds having an extended urea-like chain such as 1,4- and 2,4disubstituted thiosemicarbazides have been reported.4,5 Thiocarbohydrazide derivatives have attracted much attention in recent years due to their applications in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds,6 synthesis of transition metal complexes,7,8 and pharmacological studies.3 Moreover, carbohydrazide derivatives were widely used as an oxygen scavenger (metal passivator) for water treatment systems, particularly for boiler-feed systems.9 The chemistry of carbohydrazides has grown fast, and has not been reviewed in more than three decades. Accordingly, it is important to shed more light on the recent literature dealing with that chemistry, especially in the field of heterocycles.

1. Synthesis of Thiocarbohydrazides Syntheses of carbohydrazide and thiocarbohydrazide of preparative value are exclusively variations of one basic reaction, viz. the hydrazinolysis of carbonic and thiocarbonic acid derivatives. The individual variants of this general synthesis differ from one another in their applicability and relative merit and are discussed separately below. 1.1. Hydrazinolysis of thiophosgene Reaction of thiophosgene (1) with hydrazine afforded directly thiocarbohydrazide (2) as shown in Scheme 1.10

Hydrazinolysis of dialkyl xanthates The hydrazinolysis of dialkyl xanthates 3 is a possible route to thiocarbohydrazide (2). By warming the two reactants, high yields of thiocarbohydrazide are claimed to be obtainable; the effluent gases, ethanol and ethanethiol, are ignited as they leave the reaction vessel (Scheme 2).12,13 S R

2. Biological activities of thiocarbohydrazide derivatives Thiocarbohydrazide is the closest structural analog of thiosemicarbazide, derivatives of which are recommended as effective antitubercular18,19 and antiviral preparations.20 Thiocarbazides of the aromatic series also exhibit high antiviral21 and antimicrobial activity.22 Macrocycles synthesized in the reactions of thiocarbohydrazide (2) with polycarbonyl compounds and their complexes with the salts of divalent metals are effective fungistatic agents,23 while the cytotoxicity of the carbohydrazones and thiocarbohydrazones of some ketones is commensurable with or even exceeds the cytotoxicity of the well-known product melphalan.24

N-Imidoylthioureas (133, analogous to thiocarbohydrazides) reacted with DMAD (128) to form 1,3,5-thiadiazepines 134a-e (Scheme 57).77 The reaction mechanism can be simply described as due to sulfur atoms attacking the triple bond of DMAD in conjugate fashion, followed by proton transfer and nucleophilic attack of the amidine group on the double bond in 128 to form the intermediates 135.77 Thereafter a nucleophilic attack of the amidine-like nitrogen on the ethylenic-ester would form the salt 136. Aromatization of 136 is accompanied by the extrusion of a hydrogen molecule to produce the stable compounds 134a-e (Scheme 57).77 A similar observation was reported by Alajarín and his group.78 4.14.

4.15. Synthesis of fused heterocycles 4.15.1. Synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. The Aly group80 described the reaction of 2,3-diphenylcyclopropenone (140) with arylidene-N-phenylhydrazine-carbothioamides 141ae. The formed pyrrolo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles 142a-e can be described as due to initial [3+2]cycloaddition, followed by further cyclization with loss of H2S (Scheme 59).80

Aly et al81 have also recently reported that cyclopropenone 140 reacted with two equivalents of either thiosemicarbazide or 1-phenylthiosemicarbazide to afford the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]-pyridazinethiones 143-146.81 However, the reaction of disubstituted hydrazine-carbothioamides with 140 occurs with stoichiometric amounts of the starting materials to produce pyridazinethiones 147 (Scheme 60). The reaction mechanism, in both cases, was described as a formal [3+3]-cycloaddition.81

Synthesis of fused 1,3,4-thiadiazines.

Similarly, 156 was reacted with thiosemicarbazide to yield 5H-2-amino-6-thioxo-1,3thiazolo[4,5-e]-1,3,4-thiadiazine (159).

Scheme 70 This behavior is explained as being due to initial formation of an unstable charge-transfer complex (CTC) followed by a chemical reaction which yields substituted oxadiazoles 185 and heterocycles 186-188. Upon reaction of the same acyl thiosemicarbohydrazides with two equivalents of acceptors 169 and/or 2,3-dicyano-1,4-naphthoquinone (DCNQ, 184) in ethyl acetate, the transient CT-complexes underwent conversion into heterocycles 189-191 (Scheme 70).87 Reactions of acyl thiosemicarbohydrazides with 176 in DMF were found to run smoothly, the conversions of starting materials, in case of phenyl substitutent, in chlorobenzene to 192, whereas the other derivatives of the target donors gave with 176, heterocycles 193-195 (Scheme 71).88 PhCONHNHCSNHR + 176

Reaction of N-substituted-hydrazino-carbothioamides with diethyl maleate (DEM, 196) gave mainly the corresponding ethyl 7-oxo-3-substituted-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3]thiazine-5carboxylates 200a-e.89 This reaction can be ascribed to nucleophilic attack of the thiol group on the ester carbon accompanied by elimination of one molecule of ethanol to form the intermediate 197. Thereafter amidine-like nucleophilic attack on the amide is accompanied by water elimination to give 198. Nucleophilic attack of the terminal NH on the π-deficient double-bond produces the corresponding triazolo-dihydrothiazines 199. CO2Et CO2Et 196

The resulting solution was refluxed for 0.5 h. After that glyoxal (10 mmol) dissolved in 20 mL methanol was added to the refluxing mixture and refluxing continued for 6–10 h, depending upon the metal salt. The mixture was concentrated to half of its volume and kept in desiccators for 2 d. The complexes 218 were filtered, washed with methanol, acetone and ether and dried in vacuo: yield 40%. The complexes are soluble in DMF and DMSO, but are insoluble in common organic solvents and water.95 S C NH
