KI-catalyzed arylation of benzothiazoles from the coupling of aryl aldehydes with benzothiazoles in neat water

Abstract

A KI-catalyzed oxidative coupling of benzothiazoles with aryl aldehydes has been developed using TBHP as an oxidant in neat water under metal free conditions. Various 2-aryl benzothiazoles were prepared in 36–79% yields for 28 examples. The mechanistic studies suggested that this transformation proceeded via a radical process.
