The reaction of thiocarbohydrazide with carboxylic acids at the meltin
g temperature allows an improved preparation of the 5-substituted 4-am
ino-3-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole heterocycles. The crude 4-amino-5-mercap
to-1,2,4-triazoles react easily with carboxylic acids or carboxylic ac
id chlorides to afford the 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole rin
g system.
