Abstract
Thiazolino[2,3-a] isoquinlinones have been oxidized to the corresponding S- oxides and their I Ob-methyl derivatives desulfurized with Raney nickel to give (+/-) N-acyl salsolidine. Base-catalyzed hydrolysis of the N-acetyl de rivative afforded (+/-)-salsolidine. C-Methylation reactions of the title h eterocyclic system have been investigated throughly. Stereochemistry of the synthesized compounds has been established.
