Novel bistriazolo[1,3,6]thiadiazepine derivatives have been prepared by the base-catalyzed condensation of aromatic and aliphatic 1,2-diamines with 5-chloro-1,2,3-thiadiazoles, via a multistep process which is thought to involve two Dimroth rearrangements and subsequent loss of hydrogen sulfide by intramolecular nucleophilic substitution.
