Highly efficient synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-thiadiazoles in water-wet paste conditions

Abstract

1,3-Dibromo-5,5-diphenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione (N,N'-dibromo phenytoin) was efficiently used for the rapid conversion of thiobenzamides to the corresponding 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-thiadiazoles in water-wet paste conditions.
