Selective Stille coupling reactions of 3-chloro-5-halo(pseudohalo)-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones

A series of 3-chloro-5-halo(pseudohalo)-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones (halo/pseudohalo = Br, I, OTf) are prepared from 3,5-dichloro-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one (3) in good yields. Of these the triflate reacts with tributyltin arenes (Stille couplings) chemoselectively to give only the 5-aryl-3-chloro-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones in high yields. This allowed the preparation of a series of unsymmetrical biaryl thiadiazines and ultimately a series of oligomers. Furthermore, treatment of 3-chloro-5-iodo-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one (10) with Bu(3)SnH and Pd(OAc)(2) gave the bithiadiazinone which can also be further arylated via the Stille reaction to give bisthien-2-yl and bis(N-methylpyrrol-2-yl) analogs.

Some conceivable reaction mechanisms are discussed, and proof is given for the structure of the major compounds. By treating 4-chloro-5-(2′-chloro-ethylthio)-1, 2-dithiol-3-one with sodium methoxide, the 2-alkylidene-1, 3-dithiolane 13 is obtained. The sulfonyl groups of the 1, 3-dithiafulvenes 9a–g described may be easily replaced by hydrogen or secondary amines, yielding compounds 14, 16 and 19, respectively. When dissolved in strong acids and reprecipitated, asymmetrically substituted 2-alkylidene-1, 3-dithia compounds may be converted into mixtures of all possible cis-trans-isomers thereof. Those isomers may be separated by fractional crystallization. Isomers 31 (called β) of 9 a--g, and 32 of 16a, b, are obtained accordingly.
