Forlani, Luciano published the artcileMechanism of the formation of 1,2,4-thiadiazoles by condensation of aromatic thioamides and of N-substituted thioureas, Application of 1,1-Dimethylthiourea, the publication is Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry (2000), 37(1), 63-69, database is CAplus.
The condensation reaction of thiobenzamide (as well as thionicotinamide and isothionicotinamide) in the presence of DMSO and of an acid affords 3,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-thiadiazole. Under the same exptl. conditions, N-substituted thioureas are also condensed to 1,2,4-thiadiazole derivatives; their structure is ascertained by spectroscopic properties and by X-ray diffraction. Some information on the mechanism of thiadiazole formation from both starting classes of compounds, thiobenzamides and N-substituted thiourea, is collected and discussed.
