Organic Reactions in Ionic Liquids: A Novel Method for the Synthesis of 2-Arylthiobenzothiazoles by the S-Arylation of Benzolthiazole-2-Thiol with Diaryliodonium Salts
2-Arylthiobenzothiazoles were readily prepared in good yields by the S-arylation of benzothiazole-2-thiol with diaryliodonium salts at room-temperature in the ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim]BF4). The ionic liquid can be recycled and reused.
