Unprecedented high-yield simple and mild conversion of primary aliphatic and aromatic thioamides into 5-substituted tetrazoles on treatment with a combination of tetrachlorosilane and sodium azide in refluxing acetonitrile has been achieved. Secondary acyclic, cyclic, and heterocyclic thioamides could also be transformed in high yields into 1-substituted, 1,5-disubstituted, or annulated tetrazoles under the same reaction condition.
