Interrupted Pummerer Rearrangement: Capture of Tricoordinate Sulfur Species Generated under Pummerer Rearrangement Conditions
Bates, Dallas K.,Winters, R. Thomas,Picard, Joseph A.

A new approach to fused N,S-heterocycles is described.Treatment of N-(2-(alkylsulfinyl)phenyl)pyrroles (5) under conditions which typically promote reaction at the carbon α to the sulfoxide group (i.e., the TFAA-initiated Pummerer rearrangement) produces selectively either pyrrolobenzothiazole (9) or 1-(trifluoroacetyl)pyrrolobenzothiazole (7).It is suggested the process occurs by reaction of the pyrrole nucleus at sulfur of the corresponding O-trifluoroacetylated sulfoxide 1 producing an intermediate S-alkylpyrrolobenzothiazolium salt 3.Nucleophilic displacement of the S-alkyl substituent by the trifluoroacetate counterion liberates pyrrolobenzothiazole, which may undergo trifluoroacetylation in the presence of excess TFAA.This approach to sulfur activation for intramolecular cyclizations is superior to other methods (usually involving positive halogen and a sulfide) since polyhalogenation and the instability of derivative halopyrroles are avoided.
An interrupted Pummerer reaction induced by hypervalent iodine(III) reagent: A new synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-b]benzothiazole

Treatment of 1-(2-alkylthiophenyl)pyrroles with phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) containing trifluoroacetic acid resulted in an interrupted Pummerer reaction to give pyrrolo[2,1-b]benzothiazole rather than the normal Pummerer-type products.
Intramolecular Sulfenylation Using Sulfoxides Praparation of 5H-Pyrrolobenzothiazines

N-pyrrole (4) undergoes transfer sulfenylation to N-(2-chloromethylphenyl)-2-phenylthiopyrrole (5') presumably via S-phenyl 5H-pyrrolobenzothiazonium chloride (7).Depending upon the rigor of the reaction conditi
