P. Hudhomme et al., ELECTROCHEMICAL REDUCTION OF 2-(1,3-THIAZIN-2-YL)-2-PHTHALIMIDOPROPANOATES - A POSSIBLE ACCESS TO 2-METHYLIDENEDIHYDROTHIAZINES, Journal of chemical research. Synopses, (2), 1995, pp. 72-73
Electroreduction in an acetic buffer of methyl bonyl-6H-1,3-thiazin-2-
yl)-2-phthalimidopropanoate leads to a mixture of the corresponding 3,
6-dihydro-2H-1,3-thiazine and a (3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3-thiazin-2-ylidene)
propanoate with elimination of the phthalimido group; the selectivity
is strongly dependent on the composition of the supporting electrolyte
