Abstract

Reaction of 2,4‐diaryl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,5‐benzothiazepines 1 with a mixture of acetic anhydride and pyridine afforded 3‐acetyl‐2,3‐dihydrobenzothiazoles 2 as sole products in good yields. Stereochemistry and the hindered rotation of the amide group were studied by means of NMR spectroscopy and the results were corroborated by AM1 calculations. A reaction mechanism for the ring contraction is proposed.
