3-Chloromethyl-2(3H)-benzothiazolones 4 were synthesized from 1,3, 5-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazines 2 and chlorocarbonylsulfenyl chloride in a one-pot procedure. The chlorine atom in 4 was subtituted by three types of nucleophiles, namely, potassium acetate, p-toluenethiolate ion and sodium azide, in good yield.
