Abstract :
Catechol derivatives' chemical oxidation with potassium ferricyanide as an oxidizing agent (Decker oxidation) has been studied in the presence of 6-propyle-2-thiouracil as nucleophile in aqueous media. The results indicated that catechol and its derivatives participate in a 1, 4 Michael addition reaction with 6-propyle-2-thiouracil (ptu) to form the new and novel benzo thiazolopyrimidinone compounds. The chemical synthesis of this compound has been successfully performed at a good yield, characterizedby IR, 1HNMR and 13C NMR and MS spectroscopy.
