Facile synthesis of novel 6-methyl-5-phenyl-2-sulfido-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-4H[1,2] oxazolo[4′,5′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d][1,3,2]diazaphosphinines

A number of 6-methyl-5-phenyl-2-sulfido-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-4H[1,2]oxazolo[4′,5′: 5,6]pyrano[2,3-d][1,3,2]diazaphosphinines 4–11 were synthesized via an interaction of tetraphosphorus decasulfide and Lawesson’s reagent under different conditions with 6-amino-3-methyl-4-phenyl-4H-pyrano[3,2-d][1,2]oxazole-5-carbonitrile (3). The reaction mechanisms for these products were discussed. Structures of the newly synthesized products were established on the basis of elemental analysis and spectral data.
