The reactions of amidinothioureas, imidoylthioureas, thioacylamidines, O-methyl-1-aryl-2-thioisobiurets, and 1-aryl-isodithiobiurets with diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD, diethyl diazenedicarboxylate) gave the corresponding thiadiazoles by the oxidative cyclic S-N bond formation. Analogously, the oxidative cyclization of 2-phenyl-5-(1-methylthiosemicarbazido)-3(2H)-pyridazinones with DEAD provided 4-methyl-7-phenyl-4H-pyridazino[4,5-e] [1,3,4]-thiadiazin-8(7H)-ones.
