Halogeno-substituted ring systems alkylation

Amino-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (237) is convertible into its anthranilic acid derivative (238), which is cyclized by phosphorus oxychloride to 6-chloro-[l,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]acridine (239). Replacement of its 6-halogeno-substituent produces derivatives such as (240). An analogous series of reactions provides 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-analogues. The condensation of (237) and alkyl 2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate yields derivatives of the [1,2,5]-thiadiazolo[3,4-h]quinoline ring system such as (241)—(243). Electrophilic substitutions of naphtho[l,2-d][2,l,3]thiadiazole (244) have been studied in some detail. Nitration produces a mixture of the 6- and...
