A novel approach for chemoselective S- and N-arylation of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole was developed by copper/PEG-400 catalyst systems. Copper source and reaction temperature play an important role in this protocol, selective S-arylation of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole was achieved by using CuI/PEG-400/50 °C catalyst system, while selective N-arylation was achieved with CuO/PEG-400/140 °C catalyst system. Both are compatible with a variety of aryl halides and selectively give the desired S- and N-arylation products in good to excellent yields, respectively.

A direct C2-H thiolation of azoles with Bunte salts was achieved under the combined action of copper and silver salts. This protocol could furnish various substituted 2-thioazoles in moderate to good yields. This method has a broad substrate scope and shows good functional group tolerance.

We report the synthesis of a series of aryl- or alkyl-substituted 2-mercaptobenzothiazoles by direct thiolation of benzothiazoles with aryl or alkyl thiols via copper-mediated aerobic C-H bond activation in the presence of stoichiometric CuI, 2,2′-bipyridine and Na2CO3. We also show that the approach can be extended to thiazole, benzimidazole, and indole substrates. In addition, we present detailed mechanistic investigations on the Cu(I)-mediated direct thiolation reactions. Both computational studies and experimental results reveal that the copper-thiolate complex [(L)Cu(SR)] (L: nitrogen-based bidentate ligand such as 2,2′-bipyridine; R: aryl or alkyl group) is the first reactive intermediate responsible for the observed organic transformation. Furthermore, our computational studies suggest a stepwise reaction mechanism based on a hydrogen atom abstraction pathway, which is more energetically feasible than many other possible pathways including β-hydride elimination, single electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, oxidative addition/reductive elimination, and σ-bond metathesis.
