Procedure

A mixture of 5.5 g of the above prepared 2-(3-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole, 8.5 g of phosphorus pentasulfide and 70 ml of xylene is stirred for 16 hours at 150°-160° C. To the cooled reaction mixture are added 50 ml of water and stirring is continued for another 5 minutes. The reaction mixture is then filtered. The filter residue is taken up in 100 ml of 10% sodium hydroxide solution. After extraction with chloroform, the organic phase is washed with water, dried and concentrated. After purification by column chromatography over silica gel with a 95:5 mixture of chloroform/ethanol as eluant, the crude 2-(3-pyridyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (compound 1) of the formula ##STR8## with a melting point of 64°-67° C., is obtained.
