ABSTRACT: The reactions of β-aminoethanethiol with N,N-dimethyl enaminones are performed to selectively provide disulfide-functionalized enaminones and 1,4-thiazines. By performing the reaction in water and catalyst-free conditions, the transamination and oxidative S−S coupling between the two substrates take place to give disulfide-functionalized enaminones. On the other hand, by using identical starting materials, the employment of the CuI catalyst in dimethyl sulfoxide enables the selective generation of 1,4-thiazines via tandem transamination and C(sp2)−H bond thiolation.

INTRODUCTION Enaminones are highly useful building blocks in organic synthesis. Owing to the versatile reactive sites of different functions in enaminones, their application spans widely from diversity-oriented synthesis to target-oriented synthesis.1 Although a number of different reaction models employing enaminones as building blocks have been already disclosed, a significant issue in further expanding the synthetic application of enaminones is preparing enaminones with unprecedented functional substructures. On the other hand, the featured S−S bond in disulfide is well-documented as a useful group with widespread utility in organic synthesis or bioactive molecules.2 Therefore, installing disulfide structure to enaminones can reasonably be useful because disulfide-functionalized enaminones are potentially valuable building blocks in the synthesis of diverse organic products. 1,4-Thiazine is a typical N,S-heterocyclic backbone with enriched pharmacological profiles, such as vasopressin receptor antagonistic activity,3 antimicrobial activity,4 calcium antagonistic activity,5 and so forth. Currently, 1,4-thiazines are known to be synthetically accessible by several different synthetic methods, including the reactions of tertiary diisopropylamines and sulfurothious dichloride,6 the tandem C−S cross-coupling and S-nucleophilic substitution reactions,7 the ring-forming reactions of electron-deficient alkynes and α-hydroxyimino-βoxodithioesters,8 the microwave-assisted ring-opening reactions of 2-aminobenzothiazoles with terminal alkynes,9 and the basecatalyzed cascade reactions between 1,4-dithiane-2,5-diol and 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes.10 Despite the rich availability on the synthetic methods toward 1,4-thiazines, some limits such as harsh reaction condition, tedious preparation of substrates, and/or unsatisfactory application scope remain to be improved. In this regard, developing new methods on 1,4-thiazine © 2017 American Chemical Society
synthesis to complement those known works is still highly desirable. Recently, our and other groups have disclosed that the direct C(sp2)−H bond thiolation of enaminones is a highly useful transformation in designing the synthesis of various sulfurcontaining products such as sulfenylated enaminones,11 sufurbridged bisenaminones,12 sulfenylated chromones,13 and sulfonylated chromones.14 Inspired by these results and our sustaining efforts in developing new reactions based on the enaminone building block, we report herein the reactions of enaminones and β-aminoethanethiol for the tunable synthesis of disulfide-functionalized enaminones and 1,4-thiazines via tandem transformation of transamination, 15 S−S bond formation, or the selective C(sp2)−H bond thiolation.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Initially, the reaction of enaminone 1a and β-aminoethanethiol 2 was carried out in the presence of molecular iodine in ethyl lactate (EL), and heating at 90 °C led to the formation of enamino disulfide 3a with a moderate yield (entry 1, Table 1). Subsequently, reaction conditions were briefly optimized on the same reaction. It was found that equally good result could be obtained without using any catalyst (entry 2, Table 1). Moreover, the variation on the reaction medium indicated that water was the best medium for this reaction. Furthermore, the entries conducted at different temperatures proved that 70 °C was the most favorable temperature (entries 6−8, Table 1). To examine the application scope of this catalyst-free protocol, a broad array of N,N-dimethyl enaminones 1 were individually subjected with β-aminoethanethiol 2 in water.

copper salts (entries 1−4, Table 3). The dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), on the other hand, was found to be much better medium than MeCN, toluene, dioxane, 1,1-dichloroethane (DCE), water, and EL for the selective formation of 4a (entries 5−11, Table 3). The variation on the reaction temperature suggested that neither heightening nor lowering the temperature was effective to improve the result (entries 12−13, Table 3). What is more, reducing the loading of CuI to 0.1 equiv led to a sharp decrease on the yield of 4a (entry 14, Table 3). In addition, the reaction conducted in the presence of NiCl2 gave 4a with a low yield, and no expected product was observed when FeCl3 was used as a catalyst (entries 15−16, Table 3). To illustrate the scope on the selective synthesis of heterocyclic products 4, a class of different enaminones 1 were subjected to react with β-aminoethanethiol 2 in the presence of CuI. As outlined in Scheme 1, the examination on the synthesis of different 1,4-thiazines 4 containing various substitutions, including alkyl, alkoxyl, halogen, nitro, heteroaryl, and so forth, was smoothly furnished by using corresponding enaminone substrates (4a−4i, Scheme 1), suggesting the fine tolerance of the present catalytic reaction in the synthesis of diverse 1,4-thiazines. The products were generally afforded with moderate to good yield. The generally lower yield in the synthesis of 4 than disulfides 3 was afforded because of related enaminone disulfides was found as the minor byproducts in these entries. To explore the possible reaction mechanisms for the generation of products 4, several control experiments were conducted. At first, the model reaction of enaminone 1a and 2

functional groups such as alkyl, alkoxyl, halogen, perfluoroalkyl, naphthyl, thiophenyl, and so forth in enaminone 1 participated in the reaction smoothly. Most of these products were acquired with excellent yields under the standard reaction conditions. No notable effect of the substituent in the substrate 1 to the yield of the products was observed. However, because of the limited availability of a similar aminothiol substrate, the synthesis using different aminothiols was not conducted. To develop the synthetic application of the enaminone and aminothiol substrates in the tunable synthesis of more diverse compounds, we assumed to accomplish the synthesis of 1,4thiazines via the domino transamination and enaminone C−H thiolation. To our delight, after screening the catalytic 7785

subjecting disulfide 3a to the standard condition enabled the production of 4a with excellent yield (eq 2). This result implied that disulfide 3a might be an intermediate in the formation of the heterocyclic products.
CONCLUSIONS In summary, we have developed the tunable reactions between N,N-dimethyl enaminones and β-aminoethanethiol for the synthesis of enaminones containing the disulfide structure and 3,4-dihydro-1,4-thiazines. The former ones are produced by means of tandem transamination and oxidative S−S coupling by simply heating in water without any catalyst, and the latter compounds, on the other hand, were selectively afforded via transamination and C(sp2)−H bond thiolation by using CuI as the catalyst. The results disclose new applications of enaminones in the synthesis of diverse and useful organic products.
Under the inspiration of the control experiment results, the plausible mechanism for the reactions providing product 4 is proposed. As shown in Scheme 2, the transamination between the dimethyl amino group in 1 and primary amine as well as the aerobic oxidative S−S coupling of thiols is well-documented in the literature in which disulfide 3 is generated. Subsequently, the decomposition of 3 via the S−S bond cleavage affords Cu(I) species 5 and the iodothioite intermediate 6. The simultaneously generated iodine anion may get oxidized to molecular iodine under aerobic atmosphere. On the other hand, as the isomeric version of 5, intermediate 8 can readily be iodinated to provide 9 which undergoes intramolecular nucleophilic substitution to provide cyclic intermediate 10. The target product 4 is finally produced via the tautomerization of 10 (path a). However, considering the low yield in forming disulfide 3a in the entry using DMSO and starting materials 1a and 2 (entry 4, Table 1), it is also possible that the reaction proceeds directly via the thiolated NH enaminone intermediate 7, which can also react with CuI to provide intermediate 5. In addition, the subsequent transformations as in path a then led to the product 4 (path b).
EXPERIMENTAL SECTION General. All reactions were performed in an open air atmosphere under magnetic stirring. N,N-Dimethyl enaminones 1 were synthesized by following the literature procedure,16 and all other chemicals and solvents were obtained from commercial sources, which were used directly without further treatment. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded in a 400 MHz apparatus. The frequencies for 1H NMR and 13C NMR test are 400 and 100 MHz, respectively. The chemical shifts were reported in ppm with tetramethylsilane as an internal standard. Melting points were tested in a X-4A instrument without correcting the temperature, and the highresolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) data for all new products were obtained under the ESI model. General Procedure for the Synthesis of Disulfide Enaminones. To a 25 mL round-bottom flask were added enaminone 1 (0.4 mmol), β-aminoethanethiol 2 (0.4 mmol), and H2O (2 mL). Then, the mixture was heated up to 70 °C and stirred at the same temperature for 12 h under air atmosphere [thin-layer chromatography (TLC)]. After cooling down to room temperature (rt), the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phases were collected and washed three times with a small amount of water. After drying with anhydrous Na2SO4, the solid was filtered and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was subjected to flash silica gel column chromatography

General Procedure for the Synthesis of 1,4-Thiazines. To a 25 mL round-bottom flask were added enaminones 1 (0.2 mmol), β-aminoethanethiol 2 (0.2 mmol), CuI (0.06 mmol), and DMSO (2 mL). Then, the mixture was heated up to 70 °C and stirred at the same temperature for 12 h under air atmosphere (TLC). After cooling down to rt, 5 mL of water was added, and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phases were collected and washed three times with a small amount of water. After drying with anhydrous Na2SO4, the solid was filtered and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was subjected to flash silica gel column chromatography to provide pure products with the elution of mixed petroleum ether/ethyl acetate (v/v = 1:1).
