Electrochemically enabled synthesis of oxathiazinane via a radical cyclization cascade

Abstract

We report an electrochemical alkene thiooxygenation using 2-hydroxy-1-ethanethiol and styryl azides to access oxathiazinane. This method generates sulfur radicals in situ without oxidants or catalysts, offering excellent regioselectivity and addressing a key challenge in heterocycle synthesis.
