General description

2-Amino-6-methoxybenzothiazole undergoes Sandmeyer reaction on heating with isoamyl nitrite and CuBr2 to yield 2-bromo-6-methoxybenzothiazole.

Application

2-Amino-6-methoxybenzothiazole was used as building block in the syntheses of novel series of Schiff bases and 4-thiazolidinones. It was used in the synthesis of 2-cyano-6-methoxybenzothiazole, key intermediate for the synthesis of firefly luciferin.
