3,4,5-Trimethoxybenzaldehyde → 2-(3-oxo-4H-1,4-benzothiazin-2-yl)-N-[(E)-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)methylideneamino]acetamide

Reaction Steps

In a round-bottom glass flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar (3-Oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]thiazin-2-yl)-acetic acid hydrazide (1 eq. 0.063 mmol; 15 mg) was dissolved in ethanol (3 mL) at room temperature. To this well stirred solution, acetic acid (˜3 drops) and 3,4,5-trimethoxy-benzaldehyde solution (0.063 mmol; 12.4 mg dissolved in 0.5 mL of ethanol) were added, and the reaction mixture was stirred for another 5 hours at ambient temperature and monitored by TLC (typically with 1,2-dichloroethane-ethanol 5:1). The mixture was then concentrated under vacuum using a rotary evaporator. The crude product was diluted with hexanes and triturated. The precipitated solid product was transferred to a glass fiber funnel, the supernatant was removed by vacuum filtration and the solid was washed thoroughly with n-hexane twice to yield: 16 mg (61%) of 1-1.
