Synthesis of Some Prospective Bioactive Azeto[2,1-d][1,5]benzothiazepinones

Ten azeto2,1-d]1,5]benzothiazepinone derivatives 6a–j were synthesized starting from 4-acetyl-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole 1. First, condensation of 1 with various aldehydes 2a–e afforded α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 3a–e, which subsequently underwent cyclization with o-aminothiophenol to yield the corresponding 2,4-disubstituted-1,5-benzothiazepines 4a–e. Treatment of 4a–e with chloroacetyl chloride 5a or phenoxyacetyl chloride 5b by 2+2] cycloaddition reaction gave the title compounds 6a–j. The assignment of the structures of 6a–j was made by ¹H NMR, MS, and elemental analyses.
