Persulfate-activated charcoal mixture: an efficient oxidant for the synthesis of sulfonated benzo[d][1,3]oxazines from N-(2-vinylphenyl)amides and thiols in aqueous solution

Abstract

A simple method for the synthesis of 2,4-aryl-4-((arylsulfonyl)methyl)-4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines using an easily accessible K₂S₂O₈-activated charcoal mixture and thiols, respectively, as an oxidant and sulfonylating precursors has been described.
