Substitution at C-4 in 3,5-disubstituted 4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones

Abstract

3,5-Diaryl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones react with NaBH 4 to give the 3,5-diaryl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ols and with MeLi to give 4-methyl-3,5-diaryl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ols. The latter dehydrate with p-toluenesulfonic acid to give (3,5-diarylthiadiazin-4-ylidene)methanes. (3,5-Diphenyl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)methane 15 suffers mono bromination with NBS to give bromo(3,5-diphenyl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)methane 17. Dichloro- and dibromo(3,5-diphenyl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)methanes 18 and 19 are formed directly from the 3,5-diphenylthiadiazin-4-one 9 via the Appel reaction using Ph 3P and CCl 4 or CBr 4, respectively. 3,5-Diarylthiadiazin-4-ones treated with P 2S 5 give 3,5-diarylthiadiazine-4-thiones that react with tetracyanoethylene oxide to give the (thiadiazin-4-ylidene)malononitriles. Finally, the 3,5-diphenylthiadiazine-4-thione 20 reacts with ethyl diazoacetate to give ethyl 2-(3,5-diphenyl-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ylidene)acetate 26. The above reactions show that a variety of substitutions at C-4 of 3,5-diaryl substituted 1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones can be achieved, which extends the potential applications of this heterocycle. All compounds are fully characterized and a brief comparison of their spectroscopic properties is given. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
