1-Fluoro-2-nitrobenzene → 2-Fluorodibenzo[B,F][1,4]thiazepin-11(10H)-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

Thus, 1-chloro-2-nitrobenzene may be reacted with 4-fluorobenzenethiol in the presence of a base to form 1-nitro-2-phenylsulfanyl-(4-fluorobenzene). The nitrofluorobenzene may be reduced to 1-amino-2-phenylsulfanyl-(4-fluorobenzene) which can converted (for example, as shown) to [2-(4-fluoro-phenylsulfanyl)-phenyl]-carbamic acid phenyl ester. Such an ester may be cyclized as shown to form 2-fluoro-10H-dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepin-11-one, that may be converted to 11-chloro-2-fluoro-dibenzo[b,f][1,4]thiazepine, which can then be reacted with piperazine to form the title compound.
