Abstract
An acid-catalyzed thermolysis of a tert-butyl sulfoxide enables a simple synthesis of 3-substituted aryl[4,5]isothiazoles. Substituted aryl rings of varying electronic properties afford aryl[4,5]isothiazoles in high yields in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid in toluene.
