G. Martin et al., HETEROCYCLIZATION OF UNSATURATED PHENYLSULFIDES - SYNTHESIS OF A NOVEL SERIES OF 2-SUBSTITUTED-2,3-DIHYDROBENZOTHIAZOLES, Synthetic communications, 25(23), 1995, pp. 3747-3763
Aminoarylhydroxy thioalkenes react with tosyl derivatives to provide m
ainly N substituted -2 vinyl -2,3 dihydrobenzothiazoles. A different r
egiochemistry of cyclization depending on whether a methyl or a phenyl
susbtituent was used, was observed. Formation of -2H- 3,4-dihydrobenz
othiazines and dienes was observed.
