Participants

Reaction Steps

This naphthalene-2-acetic acid (2.6 g, 9.4 mmol) was 12 hrs refluxed in 100 mL xylene with the addition of 0.2 g p-toluene-sulfonic acid. The reaction mixture was cooled, filtered, washed with water and concentrated. Recrystallization from ethanol gave 1.5 g (61%) 3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-3-oxo-2H-naphtho[2,3-e]-1,2-thiazine 1,1-dioxide (melting point: 126-127° C.).
