“…The development of a method for the efficient regioselective synthesis of novel heterocyclic and condensed organochalcogen compounds by cyclization and annulation reactions of chalcogen reagents is the focus of our research [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. Recently we described the annulation reactions of 8-pyridinesulfenyl halides with functionalized alkenes and cycloalkenes affording a series of 2Н,3Н- [1,4]thiazino [2,3,4-ij]quinolin-4-ium derivatives in high yields [33,34]. For example, the annulation reactions with divinyl and vinyl phenyl sulfides proceeded with the attachment of the sulfur atom of 8-pyridinesulfenyl halides at the β-position of the vinylsulfanyl group, while the addition of the sulfur atom occurred at the α-carbon atom of the vinylsilyl moiety in the case of tetravinyl silane with the formation of 2-(trivinylsilyl)-2Н,3Н- [1,4]thiazino [2,3,4- Despite some progress in the development of synthetic methods for the preparation of 2H,3H- [1,4]thiazino [2,3,4-ij]quinolin-4-ium derivatives [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41], the annulation reactions of 8-quinolinesulfenyl halides with a number of vinylic heteroatom compounds (4-pentenoic acid, 5-hexenoic acid, allyl chloride and bromide, allyl cyanate, N-vinyl pyrrolidin-2-one, 1-vinylimidazole, ethyl and butyl vinyl ethers) have not been described in the literature.…”
