Synthesis and biological activity of novel 3-heteroaryl-2H-pyrido[4,3-e][1,2,4]thiadiazine and 3-heteroaryl-2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides

ABSTRACT: A series of novel 1,2,4-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides were synthesized by condensation of 2-chlorobenzenesulfonamide and 4-chloropyridine-3-sulfonamide with heterocyclic methyl carbimidates obtained from heterocyclic carbonitriles and used at the time of their creation. Substituted amidines were isolated as the intermediates in the reaction with 2-chlorobenzenesulfonamide. Those intermediates were successfully cyclized to corresponding 1,2,4-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides in pyridine with the addition of DBU. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their tuberculostatic and anticancer activities. Eight compounds were able to inhibit the growth of some renal and non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT: [Image: see text]
