The novel helerocycles 5‐methyl‐1,3,2‐benzodithiazoles (7) were prepared in 30–50% yields from toluene‐3,4‐dithiol (6) and appropriate primary amines in the presence of 2 equivalents of triethylamine under high‐dilution conditions. These compounds, which exhibit one reversible oxidation potential around +0.90 V vs . SCE, serve as a model study in the quest of synthesizing a new donor, the “boron‐nitrogen” analog of tetrathiafulvalene (BNTTF).
