2-Methoxycarbonimidoyl and 2-amidino-3-imino-5-ethoxy-Δ 4-1, 2, 4-thiadiazolines (I and II) were prepared by the reaction of potassium ethoxythiocarbonylcyanamide (III) with N-chloro compounds of O-methylisourea and guanidine. Δ 4-1, 2, 4-Thiadiazoline, I reacted with aliphatic amine to give 2-amidino-Δ 4, 2, 4-thiadiazolines and 1, 3, 5-triazines in the presence of both the free amines and amine hydrochlorides. The ring opening of Δ 4-1, 2, ...
