An efficient method for targeting a variety of symmetrical and asymmetrical α‐substituted dithiomalonates (DTMs) is described, utilizing 1 H ‐imidazole‐1‐carbothioates as reactive acylating agents and MgBr 2 ⋅OEt 2 /DBU or LiHMDS for soft or hard enolization conditions of thioesters, respectively. The utility of this methodology was demonstrated through the synthesis of the pyridopyrimidine mesoionic insecticides: triflumezopyrim and dicloromezotiaz.
