Derivatives of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles show a wide spectrum of biological activities [1]. They have found numerous applications in medicine, agriculture, and materials technology [2-3]. Many compounds bearing the 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety are effective in the medical field for the treatment of a variety of diseases. Presently, there are several 1,3,4-thiadiazole-based marketed drugs (e.g., compounds 1 and 2 in Figure 1) and drug candidates at different stages of clinical testing [4].
Many 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives have also been patented in the agriculture field as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides [5], and crop protection agents [6]. Technological uses of the 1,3,4-thiadiazoles include metal complexing agents [7], corrosion and oxidation inhibitors [8], optically active liquid crystals (e.g., compound 3 in Fig. 1) [9], and optoelectronics materials [10].
