Abstract

A new and general method has been developed for the intramolecular cyclization of thiobenzamides to benzothiazoles via aryl radical cations as reactive intermediates. The method utilizes phenyliodine (III) bis (trifluoroacetate)(PIFA) in trifluoroethanol or cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) in aqueous acetonitrile at room temperature to effect cyclization within 30min in moderate yields.
