Abstract

Abstract An efficient cascade process for the preparation of 2-substituted 1, 3- benzothiazoles directly from 2-haloaryl isothiocyanates and O or S nucleophiles by a Cu- catalyzed, intramolecular, C–S bond formation has been developed. This cascade method is viable for the efficient syntheses of both O-and S-substituted 1, 3-benzothiazoles. Furthermore, 1, 3-benzothiazol-2 (3H)-ones having an alkyl group allow easy access to 1, ...
