Chemistry of oxalyl derivatives of methyl ketones
It was established by IR, UV, and PMR spectroscopy that 2-phenacylidenebenzo-1,4-thiazin-3-ones are formed in the reaction of o-aminothiophenol with aroylpyruvic acids or 5-arylfuran-2,3-diones. 2-Carbomethoxy-2-phenacyl-1,3-benzothiazolines were isolated in the reaction of o-aminothiophenol with aroylpyruvic acid esters.
