The treatment of various 2-aminophenols with isothiocyanates afforded thioureas, which were reacted in situ with triphenylbismuth dichloride in the presence of triethylamine to give the expected N-substituted benzoxazol-2-amines in good to excellent yields. Triphenylbismuth dichloride promoted the successful cyclodesulfurization of thioureas with short reaction times under mild reaction conditions. This reaction is the first example of the synthesis of heterocyclic rings using a pentavalent organobismuth reagent.
