A series of 1,4‐benzoxathiin 4,4‐dioxide derivatives have been prepared by a new synthetic route. The reactions of 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzenethiol 1 with l‐aryl‐2‐chloroethanones 2 in the presence of sodium hydroxide give l‐aryl‐2‐(2‐chloro‐4‐nitrophenylthio)ethanones 3 which on oxidation with 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide afford l‐aryl‐2‐(2‐chloro‐4‐nitrophenylsulfonyl)ethanones 4. By the reactions of compounds 4 with 2‐[3 or 4‐(bromomethyl)phenyl]benzoxazole in the potassium carbonate, triethylbenzyl‐ammonium chloride and dimethylformamide system, 2‐aryl‐3‐arylmethyl‐7‐nitro‐1,4‐benzoxathiin 4,4‐dioxides 5 or 6 are obtained via a tandem alkylation‐cyclization process.
