Abstract

Regioselective synthesis of novel 2H,3H-[1,4]thiazino[2,3,4-ij]quinolin-4-ium derivatives has been developed by annulation reactions of 8-quinolinesulfenyl halides with vinyl chalcogenides (vinyl ethers, divinyl sulfide, divinyl selenide and phenyl vinyl sulfide) and tetravinyl silane. The novel reagent 8-quinolinesulfenyl bromide was used in the annulation reactions. The influence of the substrate structure and the nature of heteroatoms on the direction of the reactions and on product yields has been studied. The opposite regiochemistry was observed in the reactions with vinyl chalcogenides and tetravinyl silane. The obtained condensed heterocycles are novel water-soluble functionalized compounds with promising biological activity.
