4-Methylthiazole-5-carbaldehyde

M. Dong and L.-D. Sun

Abstract: The title compound, C₅H₅NOS, was synthesized by oxidation of 5-(-hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazole, resulting in the breaking of a C-C bond. The non-H atoms of the molecule are almost coplanar. In the crystal structure, no short contacts are observed between symmetry-related molecules.
