Benzothiazine derivatives are versatile chiral ligands (Harmata et al, 2006) and show various biological activities (Ahmad et al, 2010a, Misu & Togo, 2003. As part of our ongoing studies in this area (Shafiq et al, 2011a,b), we now describe the synthesis and structure of the title compound, (I) (Fig.…”
