Reactions of o-aminothiophenol and o-aminophenyl disulfide with itaconic anhydride and (-)-dimenthyl itaconate: Access to enantiomerically pure 1, 5- …
Abstract A facile chemo-and regioselective reactions of o-aminothiophenol (o-ATP) with itaconic anhydride is described. 1, 5-Benzothiazepinyl-3-acetic acid is obtained in 81% yield via the exclusive Michael type addition of the thiol unit from o-ATP to the carbon-carbon double bond in itaconic anhydride followed by an intramolecular anhydride ring opening with an amine unit. The moderately stereoselective Michael type addition of the thiol unit ...
