4.8. General procedure for the preparation of 2,9-dihydro-4-
aryl-1,3-thiazino[6,5-b]indole (11a–e)
A solution of 10a–e (0.5 g) and methyl iodide (0.5 mL) in acetone
(15 mL) and a catalytic amount of 4-dimethylaminopyridine was
heated to reflux for 5 h under an argon atmosphere with protection
from light (Al foil). The acetone solution was then concentrated
under reduced pressure. To the residue, EtOH (0.1 mL) and Et2O
(10 mL) were added to furnish the iodide salt of 11a–e as a yellow
crystalline powder. After filtration, the crystals were washed with
cold acetone (2ꢃ2 mL), and recrystallized from EtOH/Et2O. The
crystals were dissolved in H2O (20 mL) and a small amount of
MeOH (until complete dissolution), CHCl3 (15 mL) was added and
the mixture was neutralized by the portionwise addition of 10%
KOH solution. The organic layer was separated, washed with H2O
(10 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. After trituration with
n-hexane, 11a–e were obtained as yellow crystalline powders.
