Phenoxathiins are an important class of sulfur-containing heterocycle, found as the core component in numerous pharmaceutically active agents and materials. Despite this importance, there are relatively few methods for the synthesis of these heterocycles that avoid complex starting materials, harsh conditions or precious transition metals. We report a two-step synthesis of phenoxathiins from phenols using iron and copper-mediated reactions. The first step involves the accelerated ortho-thioarylation of phenols using N-(2-bromophenylthio)succinimide, catalysed by the Lewis acid, iron(iii) triflimide and the Lewis base, bis(4-methoxyphenyl)sulfane. In the second step, the thioarylated products were converted to a series of phenoxathiins using a copper-mediated, Ullmann-type, C-O bond forming cyclisation reaction. The synthetic utility of this two-step approach for the preparation of biologically relevant phenoxathiins was demonstrated using natural product-based phenols. This journal is

Novel synthetic methods for phenoxathiins and phenothiazines by aryne reactions are disclosed. We found that phenoxathiins were efficiently prepared by the reaction between aryne intermediates and S-(2-hydroxyaryl) 4-toluenethiosulfo-nates. A synthetic method for phenothiazines was also developed by the reaction of arynes with S-(2-aminoaryl) 4-toluenethiosulfonates.

Direct sulfenylation and selenylation of phenols using a stoichiometric amount of FeCl3 under an oxygen atmosphere has been developed. The chalcogenated phenols were shown to be suitable for preparing S- and Se-containing compounds using the reaction of the remaining hydroxy group.
