Synthesis, crystal structure, and interconversions of new N-aryl-1,3,5-dithiazinanes, 1,3,5-thiadiazinanes, and 1,5-dithia-3,7-diazacyclooctanes

Chemoselectivity of multicomponent reaction of anilines with the CH 2 O-H 2 S thiomethylating mixture in the synthesis of N -aryl-substituted 1,3,5-dithiazinanes, 1,3,5-thiadiazinanes, and 1,5-dithia-3,7-diazacyclooctanes has been studied depending on the type and mutual arrangement of substituents in the starting anilines, ratio of reagents, temperature, and reaction time. Conformation of the synthesized heterocycles in crystal has been found by X-ray diffraction. Interconversion of the heterocycles showed stability of N -aryl-1,3,5-dithiazinanes.
