cooled and the precipitate filtrated to give the yellowish-green salt
of thia salicylic acid in 95% yield.

Potassium thia-salicylate (1), (0.77g, 5 mmol) and diethylene glycol
dibromide (1.16 g, 2.5 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was heated under re-
flux for 15 min (precipitation of KBr occured). The solvent was then
removed in vacuum and the remaining material was washed with
water (20 mL) and recrystallized from dil. EtOH to give colorless

Sulfur Dicarboxylic Acid Dichloride 4
Sulfur dicarboxylic acid 3, (9.45 g, 0.025 mol) was heated in SO2Cl2
(50 mL) for 8 h at 50–60 ºC. The SO2Cl2was evaporated from the
solution at low temperature and the residue was crystallized from
petroleum ether to give 4 as a yellow cream solid in 85% yield;

Synthesis of Macrocyclic Diamides (5–12); General Procedure
A solution of diamine (2 mmol) in anhyd solvent (10 mL) was add-
ed quickly to a vigorously stirred solution of dicarboxylic acid
dichloride (2 mmol) in anhyd solvent at r.t. The mixture was stirred
for a further 5–20 min and then was washed with NaHCO3 (2 × 10
mL) and water (2 × 10 mL). The organic layer was dried over
MgSO4 and the solvent was evaporated to give a solid product. The
crude product was purified by column chromatography (petroleum
ether–EtOAc).
