The reactions of β-aminoethanethiol with N,N-dimethyl enaminones are performed to selectively provide disulfide-functionalized enaminones and 1,4-thiazines. By performing the reaction in water and catalyst-free conditions, the transamination and oxidative S–S coupling between the two substrates take place to give disulfide-functionalized enaminones. On the other hand, by using identical starting materials, the employment of the CuI catalyst in dimethyl sulfoxide enables the selective generation of 1,4-thiazines via tandem transamination and C(sp2)–H bond thiolation.
