Silver-promoted site-selective intramolecular cyclization of 2-methylthiobenzamide through α-C(sp3)–H functionalization. The Journal of Organic Chemistry. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.joc.9b02202https://hdl.handle.net/1805/21560Silver-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 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.enPublisher Policytransition metal-promoted α-C–H bond functionalizationsulfide groupArticle
