English abstract:
Glutathione deriv. I underwent dehydrative cyclization to thiazoline II which was oxidized by NiO2 to thiazole III (R = Et, R1 = Ac) which was hydrolyzed to III (R = R1 = H), an amino acid deriv. from the mushroom Xerocomus subtomentosus. Three thiazoline derivs. were oxidized by NiO2 to their corresponding thiazoles, whereas 5 other heterocyclic compds. were also dehydrogenated with NiO2. The thiazoline ring of phleomycin A2 was oxidized by NiO2 to the thiazole ring of bleomycin A2.
