Abstract

A completely regioselective and highly stereoselective palladium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation of arenesulfonyl ynamines to benzothiazoles was developed. The presence of an electron-withdrawing group on the triple bond of the sulfonyl ynamine was crucial for the success of the reaction and our mechanistic studies suggest an alkyne-directed 5-exo-dig cyclization pathway. The products easily underwent photoinduced rearrangement to 3-amino-1-benzothiophene-1,1-diones (up to 35 % yields after two steps).
