Abstract
2-Keto-3-mercaptocinchoninic acid derivatives 1a and b react with Schiff's bases 2a–d in toluene at refluxing temperature to give thiazino[6,5-c]quinoline derivatives 4a–h. Also, refluxing of 1a and b with arylazomalononitriles 5a–d in acetic acid afforded the thiazolo[6,5-c]quinoline derivatives 7a–d. The structure of all the newly synthesized products was confirmed based on elemental and spectral data.
