Acylation of indole and 2,5-dimethylthiophene with 2-(3-indolyl)-2- oxoacetyl chloride afforded the corresponding diketones. 1-(2,5-Dimethyl-3- thienyl)-2-(3-indolyl)ethanedione reacted with thiosemicarbazide under atmosperic and elevated pressure to give 6-(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)-5-(3- indolyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine-3-thione whose structure was studied in detail by the X-ray diffraction method. Reactions of 6-(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)- 5-(3-indolyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine-3-thione with amines and hydrazine resulted in formation of fused triazolo- and tetrazolotriazines.
