  We study descendants of inhomogeneous vertex models with boundary reflections
when the spin-spin scattering is assumed to be quasi--classical. This
corresponds to consider certain power expansion of the boundary-Yang-Baxter
equation (or reflection equation). As final product, integrable $su(2)$-spin
chains interacting with a long range with $XXZ$ anisotropy are obtained. The
spin-spin couplings are non uniform, and a non uniform tunable external
magnetic field is applied; the latter can be obtained when the boundary
conditions are assumed to be quasi-classical as well. The exact spectrum is
achieved by algebraic Bethe ansatz. Having realized the $su(2)$ operators in
terms of fermions, the class of models we found turns out to describe confined
fermions with pairing force interactions. The class of models presented in this
paper is a one-parameter extension of certain Hamiltonians constructed
previously. Extensions to $su(n)$-spin open chains are discussed.
