An efficient and catalyst-free methodology for the reductive cyclization of various disulfides using BHNH as a reductant and CO as a C1 resource was developed. The desired 2-unsubstituted benzothiazole derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields. Moreover, mechanism investigation demonstrated that BHNH played an important role in the formation of benzothiazole. As a reducing agent, BHNH reduced CO and cleaved the S-S bond of the disulfide efficiently. In addition, the N-H bond of the amino group was also activated by BHNH. To the best of our knowledge, this is an unprecedented catalyst-free protocol for the synthesis of 2-unsubstituted benzothiazole from bis(2-aminophenyl) disulfide and CO.
开发了一种高效且无催化剂的方法,以BHNH作为还原剂、CO作为C1资源,用于各种二硫化物的还原环化反应。以良好至优异的产率得到了所需的2-未取代苯并噻唑衍生物。此外,机理研究表明BHNH在苯并噻唑的形成中起重要作用。作为还原剂,BHNH有效地还原CO并裂解二硫化物的S-S键。此外,氨基的N-H键也被BHNH活化。据我们所知,这是一种前所未有的由双(2-氨基苯基)二硫化物和CO合成2-未取代苯并噻唑的无催化剂方法。
