Abstract
Abstract The synthesis and crystal structures of three mercapto functionalised 1,3,4-thiadiazoles and the crystal structure of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole are described. In the solid state, 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole 1 forms a thioamide tautomer as shown by FTIR and Raman spectroscopy as well as X-ray crystallography and as theoretically predicted. The molecules are connected to form chains via N–H⋯S hydrogen bonds with N⋯S=328.3 pm. Bis(2-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazolyl)-5,5′-disulfide 2, the disulfide of 1, as well as 2-(tert-butyldithio)-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole 3 and 2,5-bis(tert-butyldithio)-1,3,4-thiadiazole 4 have been synthesised and characterised by vibrational spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction.
