A method for the one‐pot synthesis of phenothiazines from benzothiazoles and aryl ortho ‐dihalides was explored. Preliminary work on the mechanism of the reaction suggested that it follows a domino process, including the hydrolysis of benzothiazoles followed by C–S coupling and C–N coupling. The low loading of the catalyst system (5 mol‐% for both copper and ligand), the mild experimental conditions (90 °C, 12 h), and the use of a green reaction medium make this synthesis very attractive to academia and industry.
