RESUMO
This paper discloses a transition metal-free selective C-H dithiocarbamation of drug skeletons using disulfiram (DSF) in the presence of KI/K2S2O8 in DMF/H2O. Drug skeletons, including 5-aminopyrazoles, indoles, pyrroloquinoline, and Julolidine, underwent C-H dithiocarbamation smoothly to afford a variety of drug-like molecules in moderate to good yields. It was found that the in situ formed 5-aminopyrazole iodide is the key intermediate for the dithiocarbamation. Bioassay results show that some of these N-heterocyclic dithiocarbamate derivatives exhibit good antifungal activity against Colletotrichum gloeosprioides and Fusarium oxysporum, F. proliferatum, Fusarium solani, Geotrichum candidum, Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum, Phyricularia grisea.

Dialkyl azo compounds were found to be effective alkyl radical sources for direct alkyl sulfuration with imidazopyridines using elemental sulfur under metal-free conditions. Iodine, an inexpensive and mild reagent, could promote alkyl sulfuration. A variety of quaternary cyanoalkyl radicals were successfully coupled with elemental sulfur. A subsequent C-H sulfuration of imidazopyridines afforded a diverse array of imidazopyridine derivatives bearing cyanoalkylthio groups. The cyano group could be modified and further underwent condensation with 2-aminothiazole to afford an interesting heterocyclic amide. Control experiments showed that iodine could greatly suppress the self-coupling of cyanoalkyl radicals, thus making the sulfuration proceed smoothly.
