Abstract
Reaction of 2-mercaptobenzothiazoles substituted at position 6 by chlorine, dimethylsulfamido, benzamido, and nitro groups, with chlorobromoalkanes, is used to synthesize the corresponding 6-substituted 2-(β-chloroalkylmercapto)benzothiazoles. Oxidation of these compounds with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid converts them to sulfoxides and sulfones, while heating in nitrobenzene cyclizes them to 6 substituted 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-b]benzothiazolium chlorides. The latter and previously obtained quaternary salts are converted by sodium borohydride into derivatives of a new tricyclic system, thiazolidino[2,3-b]benzothiazoline.
