New classes of unexplored benzo[]thiolanes are synthesized from trisubstituted thioamides through copper-catalyzed intramolecular -arylation of thioamides for the first time. This method provides good to excellent yields with fully controlled chemoselectivity. Unusually, iminobenzo[]thiolanes are very stable under mild acidic conditions. A plausible mechanism is proposed for the chemoselective -arylation process.
