The use of 2-halobenzyl tosylates as substrates in copper-catalyzed domino intermolecular substitution/intramolecular arylation processes for the efficient and selective preparation of heterocycles is reported for the first time. Reaction of 2-halobenzyl tosylates with β-ketoesters delivers 4H-chromenes with yields ranging between 59 and 89%. Imidazobenzothiazines are formed with yields up to 82% upon reaction of 2-halobenzyl tosylates with 2-mercaptoimidazoles. When 2-halobenzyl tosylates are reacted with benzamidines the corresponding quinazolines are obtained.
