Abstract

A multipathway coupled domino strategy has been developed for the efficient synthesis of 2-acylbenzothiazoles from multiform substrates arylethenes, arylacetylenes, 2-hydroxy-aromatic ketones, and carbinols via four distinct pathways. Through a logical coupled oxidation/heterocyclization domino process, a variety of 2-acylbenzothiazoles were synthesized free of metal in one pot.
