Irradiation of rufloxacin (RF) under aerobic conditions gives rise to N-demethylation of the piperazinyl ring, which is enhanced in aerated D2O. Two primary processes seem to be involved in RF N-demethylation: photoionization from 1RF and singlet oxygen generation from 3RF. Both processes may lead to the same key intermediates, namely, RF-+ and superoxide radical anion; coupling of these intermediates explains N-demethylation of RF via an iminium cation. Formation of the hydrated electron by a monophotonic process (with a quantum yield of 0.09) is detected along with 3RF (with a intersystem-crossing quantum yield πISC = 0.36) by laser flash photolysis. Studies performed on RF methyl ester give qualitatively similar results.

, (2008/06/13)
Pyrido-benzothiazine compounds having anti-microbial activity are prepared by (a) reacting 3-chloro-4-fluoroaniline with potassium thiocyanate and bromine to produce 2-amino-6-fluoro-7-chlorobenzothiazole, (b) reacting 2-amino-6-fluoro-7-chlorobenzothiazole with sodium hydroxide to produce the disulfide of 2-amino-5-fluoro 6-chlorothiophenol, (c) reacting the disulfide with sodium monochloroacetate to produce 7-fluoro-8-chloro-2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-one, (d) reducing 7-fluoro-8-chloro-2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-one to produce 7-fluoro-8-chloro-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzothiazone, (e) reacting 7-fluoro-8-chloro-3,4-dihydro-2-H-1,4-benzothiazone with ethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate and cyclyzing the intermediate formed with polyphosphoric acid to produce ethyl 9-fluoro-10-chloro-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-pyrido[1,2,3 de] [1,4]-benzothiazine-6-carboxylate and (f) hydrolyizing the ethyl carboxylate to produce the corresponding carboxylic acid.
