A tandem and convergent approach to various N-, O-, or S-containing azoles has been developed by exploiting the thiophilic property of copper( I) iodide used in a catalytic quantity. The present protocol gives access to amino-substituted tetrazoles, triazoles, oxadiazoles and thiadiazoles via oxidative desulfurization of their respective precursors followed by inter- or intramolecular attack of suitable nucleophiles. For aminotetrazoles and triazoles an excellent regioselectivity has been achieved through proper tuning of the pKa values of the parent amines attached to unsymmetrical thioureas. The method represents an autocatalytic process in which copper( I) iodide gets converted to copper(II) sulfide which in turn transforms to active copper(II) oxide that effectively carries forward the catalytic cycle. The fate of the copper catalyst has also been studied using scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopic (EDS) analyses which give an insight into the mechanism for this catalytic process.

Synthesis of symmetrical substituted 2,5-diamino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles is described. Reaction of easily prepared dithiocarbamates with hydrazine gives the corresponding thiadiazoles in moderate to good yields. This method is new, efficient, and simple especi

A one-pot, tandem process has been developed for the synthesis of a library of tetrazoles from aryl isothiocyanates. Condensation of aryl isothiocyanates with ammonia, and aryl amines (R-NH2) provided mono, 1,3-disubstituted symmetrical and unsymmetrical thioureas, which on desulfurization with molecular iodine (I2) led to formation of the corresponding heterocumulene (cyanamides or carbodiimides). The in situ generated heterocumulene on subsequent treatment with sodium azide at room temperature gave corresponding tetrazoles. The product regioselectivity for unsymmetrical 1,3-disubstituted thioureas was found to be correlated with the basicities (pKa's) of the parent amines attached to the thiourea. Aryl-sec-alkyl unsymmetrical thioureas gave thioamido guanidino products rather than the 5-aminotetrazoles produced by HgCl2 mediation of the reaction. Bis-thioureas derived from aryl isothiocyanates and hydrazine gave thiadiazoles exclusively.
