“…Among the privileged heterocyclic scaffolds, [1,5]benzothiazepines and fused [1,5]benzothiazepines were on the scope of chemists efforts for several years. [1,2] These compounds have been described as Calcium channel blockers, [3][4][5][6] hypotensive, [7][8][9][10] drugs of liver diseases, [11,12] antidepressants, [13][14][15] anticholinesterase inhibitors, [16][17] anticancer, [18][19][20][21][22][23] diuretics, [24] antimicrobials, [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] anti HIV, [39][40][41] and antituberculosis [42,43] agents. The useful procedures for the preparation of 1,5-benzothiazepines are mainly based on the condensation of 2-aminobenzenethiol with α,β-unsaturated ketones.…”
