Highly efficient synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-thiadiazoles using pentylpyridinium tribromide as a solvent/reagent ionic liquid

Abstract

In this paper, a facile and highly efficient synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-thiadiazoles by oxidative dimerization of thioamides using pentylpyridinium tribromide is reported. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
