Abstract
Reaction of oxazolin-5-ones1 withp-amino-diphenylamine was resulted in the formation of the corresponding imidazolin-5-ones2 which on treatment with sulphur afforded phenothiazines3. Acridine derivatives5 were obtained from acetylaminodiphenylamines derivatives6 on heating with ZnCl2 at 200°C.3 reacted with chloroacetyl chloride to give7 which reacted in turn with different amines to give8. Antibacterial activity of the obtained products was studied.
