Abstract
This article reflects the synthetic strategies and spectral investigation of 4H-1,4-benzothiazines. 4H-1,4-benzothiazines have been prepared by the condensation and oxidative cyclization of substituted 2-aminobenzenethiol with β-diketones/β-ketoesters in dimethyl sulfoxide and with the oxidation of 4H-1,4-benzothiazines by 30% hydrogen peroxide in glacial acetic acid, which results in the formation of 4H-1,4-benzothiazine sulfones. The compounds were evaluated for their antioxidative properties through in vitro and in vivo studies in Swiss albino mice. The structural assignments of compounds were made on the basis of spectroscopic data and elemental analysis.
