The syntheses of condensed 4‐thiazolidinone and its various derivatives are reviewed for the first time. Condensed 4‐thiazolidinones are important scaffolds and versatile substrates in heterocyclic chemistry, as they can be used for the synthesis of a large variety of biologically active compounds such as thiazolotriazines and as raw material for the drug synthesis. The high reactivity of active methylene group next to the carbonyl of the thiazolidin ring represents useful targets for many organic reactions.
