Gas-phase thermolysis of thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazines gave benzonitrile, isothiazole, pyrimidine, [1]benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine and thieno[3,2-d]thiazole derivatives. A mechanism of these pyrolytic transformation was proposed. Two new and efficient syntheses of the starting thieno[3,2-e][1,2,4]triazines were reported.
