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.

We report studies on the photocatalytic formation of C-S bonds to form benzothiazoles via an intramolecular cyclization and sulfenylated indoles via an intermolecular reaction. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and density functional theory studies suggest that benzothiazole formation proceeds via a mechanism that involves an electrophilic sulfur radical, while the indole sulfenylation likely proceeds via a nucleophilic sulfur radical adding into a radical cationic indole. These conditions were successfully extended to several thiobenzamides and indole substrates.

An organocatalytic protocol for the syntheses of 2-substituted benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles is described from alkyl-/arylanilides and alkyl-/arylthioanilides using 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene as catalyst and oxone as an inexpensive and environmentally safe terminal oxidant at room temperature in air via oxidative C-H functionalization and C-O/S bond formation. The procedure is simple and general and provides an effective route for the construction of functionalized 2-alkyl-/arylbenzoxazoles and 2-alkyl-/arylbenzothiazoles with moderate to high yields. The synthetic and mechanistic aspects have been described.
