Transition-metal-free synthesis of imidazobenzothiazines via domino C-S/C-N bond formation

Transition-Metal-Free Synthesis of N-Arylphenothiazines through an N- and S-Arylation Sequence

An efficient synthetic method of N-arylphenothiazines from o-sulfanylanilines under transition-metal-free conditions is disclosed. An N- and S-arylation sequence of o-sulfanylanilines enabled us to synthesize a wide variety of N-arylphenothiazines. In particular, one-pot synthesis of N-arylphenothiazines was accomplished from easily available modules through preparation of o-sulfanylanilines by thioamination of aryne intermediates and following N- and S-arylation sequence.

A divergent and metal free synthesis of sulfoximine tethered imidazoles, imidazopyridines, imidazothiazoles, imidazobenzothiazines, thiazoles and selenazoles

A divergent and metal free approach has been successfully developed for the synthesis of sulfoximine tethered heterocycles from a α-bromoalkanone building block.
