Fluoride ion and phosphines as nucleophilic catalysts: synthesis of 1,4-benzothiazepines from cyclic sulfenamides.
A new methodology, using fluoride ion as a nucleophilic catalyst, was applied for the synthesis of enantiopure 1,4-benzothiazepine from cyclic sulfenamide and electron-deficient acetylene, with high efficiency and atom economy.
