Abstract

An efficient, straightforward method for the synthesis of thiazolo-2-pyridone embedded peptidomimetic polyheterocycles via a catalyst-free, microwave-assisted, intramolecular C-H amination reaction is reported. All the synthesized polyheterocycles were evaluated for their fluorescent properties and effect on α-synuclein amyloid formation.
