Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a 100-mL 3-necked round-bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was placed a solution of S,S-dimethylmethanesulfinyl iodide (1.15 g, 5.23 mmol, 1.60 equiv), t-BuOK (4 mL, 1.20 equiv) in dichloromethane (5 mL) at room temperature After 30 minutes a solution of ethyl 9-bromo-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrobenzo[2,3]oxepino[4,5-d]thiazole-2-carboxylate (1.2 g, 3.26 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added slowly. The resulting solution was stirred for 5 h at room temperature, quenched with water, extracted with dichloromethane, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:19) to give 600 mg (48%) of the titled compound as a off-white solid; LC-MS 382,384[M+H]+.
