Propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P®): an efficient reagent for the one-pot synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles

Propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P (R)) has been demonstrated to be all efficient and mild reagent for the one-pot synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles from carboxylic acids. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
