Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of New Indolylthiazinone Derivatives

Abstract

New 6-(indol-3-yl)-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one derivatives were prepared by boron trifluoride catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of N'-substituted N-[3-(indol-3-yl)propenoyl]thioureas and by the reaction of 3-(indol-3-yl)propenoyl isothiocyanate with sodium hydrogensulfide. Antifungal activity of the prepared compounds was studied using the fungi Alternaria brassicae and Alternaria brassicicola.
