Mm. Heravi et al., REGIOSELECTIVE ANNELATION OF 3-(PROP-2-YNYLSULFANYL)-1,2,4-BENZOTRIAZINE TO THIAZOLO[2,3-C][1,2,4]BENZOTRIAZINE, Monatshefte fuer Chemie, 128(11), 1997, pp. 1143-1147
Thiosemicarbazide reacted with 1,2-diaminobenzene to give 1,2-dihydro-
3-thioxo-1,2,4-benzotriazine (1) in fairly good yield in a solvent fre
e reaction under microwave irradiation. 1 was condensed with prop-2-yn
yl bromide in the presence of sodium methoxide to afford the correspon
ding 3-(prop-2-ynylsulfanyl)-1,2,4-benzotriazine (5). Transformation o
f 5 to 2,3-dihydro-9H-thiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]benzotriazine (6) was perf
ormed in the presence of a palladium salt.
