Abstract

An efficient synthesis of new 2-aminothiazole-annulated compounds is described via copper(II) triflate promoted sequential condensation, arylation, and heterocyclization reactions in one step. The reaction is compatible with a variety of substrates providing efficient access to many biologically important skeletons in good yields.
