Novel tandem hydration of alpha-thiocyanatoketones to thiocarbamates followed by in situ cyclodehydration to fused 2-oxo-3-thiazolines is described. The reaction is applied to the synthesis of [1,3]-thiazolo[5,4-c]quinoline-2,4(3aH,5H)-diones (4). Concentrated sulfuric acid was found to be critical for the reaction as both corresponding 2,3-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-3-yl thiocyanates (2) and S-(2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-3-yl) thiocarbamates (3) rapidly hydrolyze in the presence of water to 4-hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-ones (1).
