In conclusion, we have developed a novel and efficient
synthetic method for the preparation of 5,11-dihydrobenzo[b]
pyrimido[4,5-e][1,4]thiazepine derivatives (6a–g). The initial
treatment of 2,4-dichloro-5-(chloromethyl)-6-methylpyrimidine
(3) with o-aminothiophenol in CHCl3 leads to simultaneous
substitution and heterocyclisation. The reaction of the synthesised
compound (5) with various sec-amines led to the substitution
of the 2-Cl atom to give the derivatives of a new ring system
(6a–g). Further investigation towards construction of other novel
heterocyclic ring systems is underway in our laboratory.
Experimental
Melting points were recorded on an Electrothermal type 9100 melting
point apparatus. The IR spectra were obtained on Avatar 370 FT-IR
Thermo Nicolet and only noteworthy absorptions were listed. The
1H NMR (300 MHz) and the 13C NMR (75 MHz) spectra were recorded
on a Bruker Avance DRX-400 Fourier transformer spectrometer.
Chemical shifts were reported in ppm downfield from TMS as internal
standard. The mass spectra were scanned on a Varian Mat CH-7 at 70
eV. Elemental analyses were performed on a Thermo Finnigan Flash
EA microanalyser.

thiazepine (5): A solution of o-aminothiophenol (4) (1 mmol, 0.12 g) in
CHCl3(1 mL) was added dropwise to a cooled (–15°C) stirred solution
of 2,4-dichloro-5-(chloromethyl)-6-methylpyrimidine (3) (1 mmol,
0.21 g) and Et3N (2 mmol, 0.2 g) in CHCl3 (5 mL). The resulting
mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature for 5 h, then water
(10 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with CHCl3 (3× 10
mL). The combined organic solvents were dried over anhydrous sodium
sulfate and concentrated. The resulting solid was purified using silica
gel column chromatography CHCl3: methanol (30:1) as eluent. Yield
