Summary:[Display omitted] •Benzothiazoles were efficiently prepared starting from disulfides and primary alcohols.•2-Alkylbenzothiazoles were prepared from primary alcohols using DTBP as oxidant.•Bis(o-aminophenyl) disulfides were converted to 2-arylbenzothiazoles.•2-Arylbenzothiazoles were prepared from benzylic alcohols in the presence of DTBP. A peroxide-mediated protocol for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles was developed, starting from bis(o-aminophenyl) disulfides and primary alcohols. Eleven differently 2-substituted benzothiazoles were prepared in moderate to excellent yields using di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) as an oxidant.
