Abstract

Thiazoles were obtained in high yields by the reaction of 1H-1-(1′-alkynyl)-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxides, which were easily prepared from the reaction of 1H-1-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxide and 1-alkynes, with thioamides. Here, the co-product, potassium 2-iodo-5-methylbenzenesulfonate, was recovered quantitatively by simple filtration of the reaction mixture, and was regenerated to 1H-1-(1′-alkynyl)-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxides to be reused for the same preparation of thiazoles, keeping good yields.

Typical Procedure for Preparation of 1 H -1-(1′-Hexynyl)-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-Dioxide A mixture of 1H-1-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxa-thiole 3,3-dioxide (5 mmol), PTSA˙H2O (5 mmol), and 1-hexyne (25 mmol) in MeCN (40 mL) was refluxed for 20 h. After removal of the solvent to obtain an oil, a solution of the oil in CHCl3 (200 mL) was washed with 5% NaHCO3 (80 mL) and H2O (3 × 50 mL), and was concentrated to a solid. Recrystallization of the solid with a mixture of CH2Cl2 (30 mL), Et2O (100 mL), and hexane (60 mL) gave 1H-1-(1′-hexynyl)-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxide in 53% yield.

Typical Procedure for Preparation of Thiazoles
To a solution of thiobenzamide (0.48 mmol) in THF (2 mL) were added K2CO3 (0.92 mmol) and 1H-1-(1′-phenyl-ethynyl)-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxide (0.4 mmol). The obtained mixture was stirred at 45 ˚C overnight under argon atmosphere. After the reaction, the mixture was filtered to remove potassium 2-iodo-5-methyl-benzene-sulfonate quantitatively. After evaporation of the filtrate, the residue was chromatographed on SiO2 (eluent: hexane-CHCl3, 1:1) to afford pure 1,4-diphenylthiazole in 65% yield.

Regeneration of Potassium 2-Iodo-5-methylbenzene-sulfonate to 1 H -1-Hydroxy-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziod-oxathiole 3,3-Dioxide Hydrogen peroxide (33%, 1.3 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of acetic anhydride (1.2 mL) at 0 ˚C. The obtained mixture was stirred overnight. After the reaction, the mixture was added dropwise to a stirred mixture of potassium
2-iodo-5-methylbenzenesulfonate (2.4 mmol) in AcOH (4 mL) and concd H2SO4 (1.2 mL) while keeping the temperature at 10-15 ˚C. The mixture was stirred at this temperature for 1 h and overnight at r.t. After the reaction, the precipitate was filtered to give 1H-1-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,2,3-benziodoxathiole 3,3-dioxide in 50-60% yield.
