“…It is usually characterized by a significant degree of conversion and high yields of target products. However, imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazine derivatives were not systematically studied in this kind of transformations, except for the report [19] that described the synthesis of 6bromo-2,3-diphenylimidazo[2,1-b] [1,3]thiazine and 3chlorobenzo [4,5]imidazo[2,1-b] [1,3]thiazine by halogenation of the corresponding 6(3)-hydroxy(benzo) imidazo[2,1-b] [1,3]thiazines. Therefore, we decided to investigate the possibility of using hydroxy-substituted (benzo)imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazines 10,[20][21][22] as basic substrates in nucleophilic substitution reactions with sodium azide, potassium thiocyanate, and sodium cyanide.…”
