Silver-Promoted Site-Selective Intramolecular Cyclization of 2-Methylthiobenzamide Through α-C(sp3)–H Functionalization

Authors:

Abstract
Silver-mediated intramolecular α-C(sp3)–H bond functionalization of the methylthio group has been established in the presence of Selectfluor as an additive. This novel strategy provides an efficient access to various diverse sulfur-based heterocycles with good yields and functional group compatibility. It is noteworthy that the completely novel benzooxathiin-4-imine skeletons were reported for the first time in this study.
