“…A catalytic amount of triethyl amine was also found effective for the synthesis of 2-amino-2',5-dioxo-5H-spiro[benzo [4,5]thiazolo [3,2-a]pyrano [2,3-d]pyrimidine-4,3'-indoline]−3-carbonitrile derivatives 50. 46 Here, Miri et al, in this methodology involved malononitrile/active methylene compound, isatins and 2-Hydroxy-4Hbenzo [4,5]thiazolo [3,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 49 in one-pot (Scheme 21). The reaction proceeded in ethanol medium at 70 o C. The merits of this protocol are easy operation, benign towards environment and excellent yields.…”
