A variety of N-substituted 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-ones were easily synthesized from N,N′-disubstituted 2,2′-dithiodibenzamides in the presence of O-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride. Derivatives with a primary, secondary, or tertiary alkyl group or an aryl group on the N-1 nitrogen of the 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one were obtained.
