Fundamental thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the reaction in which acetic acid guanyl hydrazide is formed from aminoguanidine and acetic acid in aqueous solutions at pH 0.6-1.5 and the kinetics of cyclization of acetic acid guanyl hydrazide hydrochloride to 5-amino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole hydrochloride in a melt were studied. Methods for synthesis of acetic acid guanyl hydrazide hydrochlorides and 5-amino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole hydrochloride were developed.
