A novel self-sequence reaction network involving a set of six reactions in one pot: the synthesis of substituted benzothiazoles from aromatic ketones and anilines.
Employing simple and readily available aromatic ketones and anilines as starting materials resulted in the construction of 2-acylbenzothiazoles via a novel self-sequence reaction network, which assembles six reactions in one pot. The reaction network not only supplied a novel method for constructing complex molecules but also provided a typical example for logical self-organization synthesis.
