Sustainable approaches for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles are sought after for their use in organic chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, and industrial applications. Here, we described a visible light-driven photoredox catalytic cyclization of thioanilides to afford 2-substituted benzothiazoles using riboflavin as a photocatalyst, where oxygen is used as a clean oxidant and ethanol as a greener solvent. These results provide a new photochemical route for environmentally benign synthesis.

The need for diverse essential chemicals and resources has markedly risen alongside the advancement of civilization. Regrettably, many toxic solvents used in chemical laboratories and industrial settings pose significant risks to the health of researchers and intensify environmental pollution. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), serving as an alternative to ionic liquids, provide superior environmental benefits and have garnered significant interest in chemical research.

Background And Objective: Benzothiazole derivatives, a class of heterocyclic compounds, exhibited diverse biological activities influenced by substituents in the thiazole ring. This study aimed to synthesize these compounds with two functional groups to investigate their potential as anticancer agents, particularly against breast cancer. While previous research demonstrated the efficacy of 2-substituted benzothiazoles against glioma and cervical and pancreatic cancer cells, there is a gap in studies targeting breast cancer.

Background: The development of antimicrobial agents is crucial for several reasons, primarily to combat infectious diseases and to address the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. The need for the contin-ued development of antimicrobial drugs persists despite the presence of many existing drugs for several reasons viz; emerging new pathogens and diseases, reistance to existing drug and propogation of multi-drug resistance to existing drugs.
Objective: The objective of the study was to synthesize and evaluate the antimicrobial potential of newly synthesized benzothiazole derivatives.

In this study, the synthesis of N-(5,6-methylenedioxybenzothiazole-2-yl)-2-[(substituted)thio/piperazine]acetamide/propanamide derivatives (3a-3k) and to investigate their acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and β-secretase 1 (BACE-1) inhibition activity were aimed. Mass, H NMR, and C NMR spectra were utilized to determine the structure of the synthesized compounds. Compounds 3b, 3c, 3f, and 3j showed AChE inhibitory activity which compound 3c (IC = 0.

Background: The objective of the study was to design and synthesize a series of N-(6-substituted-1,3-benzothiazole- 2-yl)-2-{[6-(3-substitutedphenyl)-5-cyano-2-sulfanylpyrimidine-4-yl)]amino}acetamide derivatives BPD (1-15) that contains key pharmacophores required for anticonvulsant action.
Methods: The titled compounds (BPD 1-15) were synthesized by reacting 2-substituted-N-(6-chlorobenzo[d]thiazol2-yl)acetamide with 4-amino-6-(4-substituted phenyl)-2-mercapto pyrimidine 5-carbonitrile in the presence of potassium carbonate and dry acetone. The synthesized compounds BPD (1-15) were assessed in vivo by the maximum electric shock (MES) test and the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazol (scPTZ) test in mice.
