Synthesis of substituted in benzene ring 4-[(2-aminophenyl)thio]-, 4-[(2-mercaptophenyl)amino]-2-methylquinolines and (4E)-4-[(2-mercaptophenyl)imino]-2-methyl-1,4-dihydroquinolines

By a reaction of 2-methyl-4-chloroquinolines with o-mercaptoaniline under various conditions synteses were performed of substituted in the benzene ring 4-[(2-aminophenyl)thio]-2-methylquinolines and (4E)-4-[(2-mercaptophenyl)imino]-2-methyl-1,4-dihydroquinolines that were respectively by isomerization or rearrangement converted into 4-[(2-mercaptophenyl)amino]-2-methylquinolines.
