Abstract: 

The 2-Amino benzothiazol (A) was prepared by reacting Sulfamethoxazole with potassium thiocyanate in the presence of bromine as a catalyst. The 2-amino benzothiazol (A) was reacted with benzaldehyde derivatives in the presence of glacial acetic acid as a catalyst and ethanol as a solvent to produce the Schiff base derivatives (H1-H3). This method was also used to manufacture the Schiff base derivatives (H4-H6). Preparation of thiazines derived from Schiff base derivatives (H1-H3) with the appropriate solvent. The study evaluated the efficacy of several compounds against four bacterial strains, namely E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Klebsiella pneumonia. The findings indicated that the tested compounds exhibited varying degrees of effectiveness against the bacteria at different concentrations (0.1, 1, and 10 mg/ml), with some demonstrating good to moderate activity. The standard antibiotic, Fluconazole, was also included in the experiment at a concentration of 5 mg/ml for comparison purp.

1. Introduction

Sulfamethoxazole (SMZ or SMX) IUPAC, also known as 4-Amino-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl) benzenesulfonamide, is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. It was first certified in the United States in 1961. It is currently most commonly used in conjunction with trimethoprim (abbreviated SMX-TMP). Sulfamethalazole, sulfisomezole, and sulfamethazole are other names for it. It is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections and is effective against both positive and negative microorganisms [1]. The chemical compound known as 2aminobenzothiazole has the formula C7H6N2S and is classified as an aromatic phenyl ring fused thiazole ring molecule [2]. In the fields of medical and pharmaceutical chemistry, a number of 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives play an essential role due to the versatility and breadth of the biological activities that may be performed by these compounds. variations. Various synthetic derivatives of 2-Aminobenzothiazole were demonstrated, exhibiting diverse biological activities and pharmacological variations [3, 4]. Thiazine is a heterocyclic compound consisting of a sixmembered ring containing two heteroatoms, nitrogen $(\mathrm{N})$ and sulfur (S), located at the 1,3 positions within the ring. Thiazines exhibit significant utility in the field of medical and pharmaceutical chemistry, and have demonstrated diverse biological activities [5, 6]. A large set of dyes, including methylene blue thiazine, have phenothiazine structures and are employed as dyes, tranquilizers, and insecticides. Thiazine can help you lose some of the additional water weight on your stomach. Thiazine is a pretty basic diuretic supplement that eliminates water and increases vascularity. It is also used in medicine as an anabolic agent [7, 8]. The active core of cephalosporins, which are among the most extensively used $\beta$ lactum antibiotics, is the 1,3-thiazine nucleus [9, 10]. The potential of thiazine to inhibit the growth of tuberculosis and germs, to deactivate HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) in biological fluid, and to serve as an agonist for cannabinoid receptors is a significant property of the compound [11, 12].

3. Results and Discussion

The infrared spectra of the prepared compound (A1) indicated the appearance of the symmetrical and asymmetrical amine group (-NH2) for 2-Amino benzothiazol (A) at (3361,3467 cm-1). Moreover, the appearance of the (νC-H arom.) at (3072 cm-1). The appearance of absorption bands for (νC-H alip.) at (2975 cm-1). The results were in agreement with the literature [13].

The structural formula of the compound was confirmed by proton 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Singlet signal was seen for compound (A) at [=2.31 ppm (s,3H), CH3]. A Singlet signal appeared at [δ=6.14ppm, (s,1H)] refers to a proton five ring and the singlet signal at [δ=7.07ppm, (s,2H) NH2]. While the multiple signals at [δ=7.86-8.42ppm, (m,3H, CH Arom)] . and Singlet signal appeared at [δ =11.27 ppm, (s,1H,NH)] (14) (Figure 1).

The FT-IR spectra were utilized to validate the structures of the Schiff's bases that were synthesized. The spectra demonstrated the absence of the distinctive absorption frequencies of both (C=O) at (1720-1740) cm-1 and (-NH2) at (3300-3500) cm-1 of the aldehyde and the primary amine, respectively. The stretching absorption bands of the azomethine group (C=N) were observed within the spectral range of (1695-1674) cm-1. Furthermore, Table 3 presents the stretching absorption data of the remaining groups in addition to their respective appearances.
