Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrido[3,2-b][1,4]thiazine-6-carboxylate (31a) (1.0 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran (170 ml) was treated with a 1M solution of lithium aluminium hydride in ether (14 ml) and the mixture was heated under reflux for 18 hours. It was cooled and a slight excess of 2N sodium hydroxide was added followed by chloroform and anhydrous sodium sulphate and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes and filtered. The solution was evaporated to dryness to give a semi-solid (0.482 g)
