General Procedure for the Preparation of Guanidines 6: To a well-stirred mixture of the corresponding bis-(1,3,4-thiadiazolo)-1,3,5-triazinium halide 1 (5 mmol) and amine 2 (5 mmol) in 30 mL CHCl3, Et3N (30 mL) was added gradually at r.t. After stirring over a period of 24 h, the resulting suspension was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was washed with cold water and extracted three times with CHCl3. The combined extracts were dried with Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residues were purified by column chromatography (silicagel 60; eluting with EtOAc; pentane/EtOAc; Et2O/EtOAc) or by fractional crystallization from EtOH, MeCN, EtOAc.
All new compounds 6 were fully characterized. Selected analytical data:

General Procedure for the Formation of 2-(Het)arylamino-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 7: The suspension of 1 (5 mmol) and amine 2 (10.1 mmol) in pyridine (60 mL) was stirred at r.t. for 24-60 h. [11a] The reaction mixture, changing to a nearly clear solution, was concentrated to dryness in vacuo. The solid residue was washed off with water and recrystallized as described in the literature. [14] [16] The novel compound 7e was purified by column chromatography and fractional crystallization from CHCl3/EtOAc to prepare crystalline material suitable for X-ray investigation.
