B. Unterhalt et S. Moghaddam, REACTIONS OF 2,3-DIHYDRO-3-THIOXO-THIENOI SOTHIAZOLE 1,1-DIOXIDES WITH DIAZOMETHANE AND DIAZOETHANE, Die Pharmazie, 49(5), 1994, pp. 317-319
ydro-3-thioxo-thieno[2,3-d]isothiazole-1,1-dioxide and 2,3-Dihydro-3-t
hioxo-thieno[3,2-d]isothiazole 1,1-dioxide are reacted with diazoalkan
es in ether/methanol to give 3-alkylthio derivatives and 2-alkyl-3-alk
ylen products. These can be synthesized directly from the 2-methyl-3-t
hioxo compounds, for example, by adding diazomethane or diazoethane. T
he isomers with diazoethane are separated.
