Synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles from 2-fluorophenylisothiocyanate

Treatment of 2-fluorophenylisothiocyanate with a Grignard reagent, followed by base-induced cyclization of the resulting thioamide, provides a convenient method of synthesizing 2-substituted benzothiazoles. Best results are obtained upon isolation and purification of the intermediate thioamide, but a direct one-pot isothiocyanate-to-benzothiazole transformation has also been achieved.
