Abstract

1,3,4-Oxadiazoles are privileged heterocyclic scaffolds with broad bioactivities, holding significant importance in pharmaceutical and agrochemical discovery. Herein, we report a novel, efficient, and simple synthetic route to 2-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles via NaOH-mediated desulfurative cyclization of hydrazides and isothiocyanates under mild reaction conditions. This developed methodology features broad substrate tolerance, excellent yields, operational simplicity, and mild conditions, providing a straightforward pathway for versatile syntheses of valuable 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative. Consequently, the present reaction opens an alternative path for the preparation of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles via regioselective cyclization hydrazides and isothiocyanates.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
