Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00470031

The reaction of 5-mercapto-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide with P₄S₁₀ was studied; the mechanism of this reaction is discussed. The effect of the donor-acceptor properties of the substituents on the direction of cyclization of the intermediate malonic acid α-diazodithioamide was investigated. A new rearrangement in the 5-mercapto-1,2,3-triazole series was observed.
