A. Dasettimo et al., SYNTHESIS OF PURINOBENZOTHIAZINE AND PYRIDOTHIAZINOPURINE DERIVATIVES- 2 NEW HETEROCYCLIC RING-SYSTEMS, Journal of heterocyclic chemistry, 35(1), 1998, pp. 57-60
The synthesis of derivatives of two new heterocyclic systems, purino[8
,7-b][1,3]benzothiazine and pyrido[3',2':5,61[1,3]thiazino[3,2-f]purin
e, was effected by the Ullmann reaction between 8-mercaptotheophylline
or 8-bromotheophylline with the appriopriately substituted benzoic or
nicotinic acid, respectively. The 8,8'-dithiobistheophylline is also
reported.
