A photocatalyst- and transition-metal-free visible-light-induced cyclization of ortho-halothiobenzanilides has been developed. Upon irradiation with visible light, substrates undergo dehalogenative cyclization to 2-aryl benzothiazoles with high efficiency and selectivity. This photocyclization exhibits a high tolerance to various functional groups, is applicable for the synthesis of 2-alkyl benzothiazoles, and is easy to set up for gram-scale reaction.

Visible-light-driven, intramolecular C(sp2)-H thiolation has been achieved without addition of a photosensitizer, metal catalyst, or base. This reaction induces the cyclization of thiobenzanilides to benzothiazoles. The substrate absorbs visible light, and its excited state undergoes a reverse hydrogen-atom transfer (RHAT) with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine N-oxyl to form a sulfur radical. The addition of the sulfur radical to the benzene ring gives an aryl radical, which then rearomatizes to benzothiazole via RHAT.

An aerobic visible-light driven photoredox catalytic formation of 2-substituted benzothiazoles through radical cyclization of thioanilides has been accomplished. The reaction features C-H functionalization and C-S bond formation with no direct metal involvement except the sensitizer. The reaction highlights the following: (1) visible-light is the reaction driving force; (2) molecular oxygen is the terminal oxidant, and (3) water is the only byproduct.
