Synthesis
General procedure for the synthesis of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole from o-phenylenediamine: 1,2-diaminobenzene (3.250 g, 30.05 mmol) and triethylamine (18 mL, 130.0 mmol) were dissolved in dichloromethane (20 mL). A solution of sulfuryl chloride (7.0 mL, 96.00 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added dropwise with stirring. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by rotary evaporator and the combined organic layers were concentrated under vacuum to afford the target product 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (3.956 g, 97% yield). The melting point of the product was 43 °C. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz, TMS) δ: 8.04-8.00 (m, 2H), 7.62-7.57 (m, 2H).
