SYNTHESIS OF 1,3,5-THIADIAZINES
489
INTRODUCTION
Thiadiazines and their derivatives are important biologically active precursors
in the field of medicinal chemistry. Thiazine, thiazole, and thiadiazines have been
explored to the maximum extent owing to their pharmacological activities and uses,
such as development of new fungicides against rice blast disease, Magnaporthe
grisea.[1] Some amino derivatives of thiadiazines show antiviral, anesthetic,
cardiovascular, and hypometabolic activities.[2,3] Some 1,3,5-thiadiazines are found
to possess antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities.[4] A variety of
1,3,5-thiadiazines and 1,3,5-triazines have been prepared by the interaction of
phenyl isocyanodichloride and several thioamido group containing compounds.[5–8]
The chemistry of organo-sulfur system[9,10] prompted us to extend our work
into a series of lactosyl-1,3,5-thiadiazines hydrochlorides. Herein we synthesize
several N-lactosylated-1,3,5-thiadiazines hydrochlorides by the interaction of tert-
butyl isocyanodichloride with 1-aryl-5-hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosyl-2-S-benzyl-2,
4-isodithiobiurets. The required 1-aryl-5-hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosyl-2-S-benzyl-
2,4-isodithiobiurets were obtained by the reaction of 1-aryl-S-benzyl isothiocarba-
mides with hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosylisothiocyanate.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A solution of 1-aryl-5-hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosyl-2-S-benzyl-2,4-isodithio-
biuret (Ia) was added to a solution of tert-butyl isocyanodichloride and the reaction
mixture was refluxed for 3 h. A brisk reaction with evolution of hydrogenchloridegas
was noticed. Afterward, the solvent was distilled off to obtain a sticky residue. This
residue was triturated with petroleum ether (60–80 ꢀC) to afford a pale yellow solid
(IIIa). The product was purified by chloroform–petroleum ether.
The specific rotation was measured in chloroform. In spectral analysis[11–13] IR
spectra of product showed characteristic absorption of the lactose unit in the ranges
1
of 900–910 and 1000–1100 cmꢁ1. H NMR spectra of product distinctly displayed
signals due to aromatic protons and lactose ring protons. The mass spectra of
product were also evaluated.
When the interaction of 1-aryl-5-hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosyl-2-S-benzyl-2,
4-isodithiobiurets (Ib–l) was extended to tert-butyl isocyanodichloride, the
resepective products of 2-tert-butylimino-3-hepta-O-benzoyl-b-D-lactosylimino-
4-S-benzyl-6-arylimino-2,3-dihydro-1,3,5-thiadiazines (IIIb–l) were isolated.
EXPERIMENTAL
All chemicals were research grade. Melting points were taken in open capillary
tubes and are uncorrected. Infrared (IR) spectra were recorded in Nujol, KBr on a
1
FT-IR Perkin-Elmer RXI (4000–450 cmꢁ1) spectrophotometer. H NMR measure-
ment were performed on a Bruker DRX-300 (300 MHz FT NMR) NMR spec-
trometer in CDCl3 solution with tetramethylsilane (TMS) as an internal reference.
The mass spectra were recorded on a Make-Waters Model-QToF Micro Source-ESI
mass spectrometer. Optical rotation [a]D31 was measured on a Equip-Tronics Digital
Polarimeter EQ-800 at 31 ꢀC in CHCl3. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was per-
formed on silica gel G for TLC (Merck) and spots were visualized by iodine vapor.
