Abstract
Treatment of bis(o‐nitrophenyl)disulfides 1 with SmI~2~ led to simultaneous reduction of nitro groups and reductive cleavage of S–S bonds as well as the formation of the active intermediates 2. The intermediates 2 reacted smoothly with aldehydes or ketones, acid chlorides or anhydrides, α‐bromoketones, and α,β‐unsaturated ketones at room temperature to afford the desired benzothiazolines 3, benzothiazoles 4, 2H‐1,4‐benzothiazines 5, and 2,3‐dihydro‐1,5‐benzothiazepines 6, respectively, in moderate to high yields under mild and neutral conditions. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
