18. 11. The use of carbamate derivatives was necessary in order to prevent the competitive methylation of both sulfur and nitrogen atoms in a further step of the synthesis.
19. 2, Pd/C, in order to obtain the free amine (which would be transformed into the carbamate derivatives required for cyclization) were unsuccessful.
