Abstract
AbstractAn efficient and convenient condensation reaction of 2‐aminothiophenol with aldehydes catalyzed by a catalytic amount of ceric ammonium nitrate in polyethylene glycol was investigated. As a result, a set of diverse 2‐substituted benzothiazoles such as 2‐phenylbenzothiazole as well as its p‐Me, p‐NO2, p‐F, p‐Cl, p‐Br, o‐OMe, p‐OMe and 2‐furyl, 2‐pyridyl and styryl derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields for 5 h at room temperature. Additionally, the catalyst system was recovered and reused several times without evident loss in activity. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
