Synthesis of 2-arylbenzothiazoles using nano BF3/SiO2 as a reusable and efficient heterogeneous catalyst under mild conditions

چکیده مقاله

2-Arylbenzothiazoles were synthesized via condensation of 2-aminothiophenol and different aldehydes catalyzed by nano silica-supported boron trifluoride (nano BF3/SiO2) as an efficient and reusable catalyst in high yields and short reaction times. The reactions proceeded at room temperature under mild conditions to afford 2-arylbenzothiazole derivatives. The pure products were identified and characterized by physical and spectroscopic data such as IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and Mass spectroscopy.
