%X An efficient protocol has been developed for the preparation of a series of 2-arylbenzothiazoles derivatives from condensation of 2-aminothiophenol with aromatic aldehydes using ammonium chloride, which is a very inexpensive, metal-free and readily available reagent. The target compounds were obtained in good to excellent yields (58-92%) under fairly mild reaction conditions at room temperature.
