Synthesis of benzothiazoles via ipso substitution of ortho-methoxythiobenzamides.
An efficient route to the synthesis of benzothiazoles from ortho-methoxythiobenzamides via the ipso substitution of an aromatic methoxy group is presented, and the mechanism of the Jacobson synthesis of benzothiazoles is further investigated.
