Participants

Reaction Steps

2-[6-[(Benzylthio)methyl]-2-pyridyl]-4H-1,3-benzothiazine-4-one (0.080 g, 0.22 mmol) was dissolved in chloroform (50 ml), and a solution of 3-chloroperbenzoic acid (ca. 77%, 0.037 g, 0.22 mmol) in chloroform (10 ml) was added dropwise thereto. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was recrystallized from n-hexane-ethyl acetate to give the titled compound (0.053 g, 64%) as pale yellow crystals.
