Assembly of thiazole-2-thiones through cyclization of enaminones, aryl isothiocyanates, and elemental sulfur
Synthesis of thiazole-2-thiones is often challenging as it requires the use of flammable, toxic CS2 as the sulfur source. Only a couple of examples in which elemental sulfur provides sulfur atoms for thiazole-2-thiones are known. Yet, those methods often suffer from over-stoichiometric amount of a strong oxidant and the limitation of substrate scope. Herein we develop a method to allow for a three-component annulation of enaminones, aryl isothiocyanates, and elemental sulfur to target 5-benzoylthiazole-2-thiones. Our successes feature a new approach in which relatively electron-rich CC bonds in enaminones are utilized to afford thiazole-2-thiones without the assistance of external oxidants.
