An improved synthesis of 4-chlorocoumarin-3-sulfonyl chloride and its reactions with different bidentate nucleophiles to give pyrido1′, 2′:2,3- and thiazino3′,2′:2,3-1,2,4-thiadiazino6,5-c benzopyran-6-one 7,7-dioxides

摘要

An improved synthetic method affording 4-chlorocoumarin-3-sulfonyl chloride (4) in very good yield (ca. 85 %) is reported. This compound was reacted with various bidentate nucleophiles such as 2-aminopyridines and 2-aminothiazoles in order to obtain substituted pyrido- and thiazino-1,2,4-thiadiazino-benzopyranone dioxides (potential anticancer and anti-HIV agents). These reactions occurred rapidly at room temperature giving yellowish precipitates, which are insoluble in common organic solvents, making the purification process challenging. Further investigation has shown that these fused heterocycles are not stable and decompose with opening of the 1,2,4-thiadiazine ring. © 2007 by MDPI.
