A novel and efficient one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles using various carboxylic acid hydrazides with trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMSNCS). In situ preparation of various thiosemicarbazides by the reaction of different carboxylic acid hydrazides with trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMSNCS), followed by cyclodehydration of thiosemicarbazides under acidic conditions gave 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles in high yields (71-87%).
A new class of bicyclic silaheterocycles, 6,6‐dimethyl‐2‐aryl‐6,7‐dihydro‐5H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b][1,3,5]thiazasilines, which could be developed as potential sila‐drugs. The reactions of several 3‐aryl‐5‐mercapto‐1,2,4‐triazoles with bis(chloromethyl)dimethylsilane under basic conditions gave high yields of bicyclic products. Reaction, product workup and isolation were streamlined without requiring an anhydrous solvent, inert gas or chromatographic purification. The products were structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
