Synthesis of substituted 2-arylimino-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazines

The synthesis of 3,4,4,6-tetramethyl-2-arylimino-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazines, which have a fixed imino structure, was accomplished by two methods: by intramolecular rearrangement of 1,4,6,6-tetramethyl-3-aryl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-2-thiones and by amination of 3,4,4,6-tetramethyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine-2-thione methiodide.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 941–943, July, 1972.
