A series of novel polycyclic structures, with an imidazothiazole central core, were successfully synthesized through the anodic oxidation of catechols in the presence of 2-imidazolidine thione, as nucleophiles in aqueous solution. The cyclic voltammetric results indicated that one-pot multi-step seq...
