Procedure

A saturated solution of phosgene in ethyl acetate (100 ml) was charged into a glass reaction vessel equipped with a mechanical stirrer. A slurry of 5-t-butyl-2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole (10 grams) in ethyl acetate (300 ml) was added to the reaction vessel, and the resulting mixture was stirred for a period of about 16 hours, resulting in the formation of a precipitate. The reaction mixture was then purged with nitrogen gas to remove unreacted phosgene. The purged mixture was then filtered to recover the desired product 5-t-butyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl isocyanate dimer as a solid having a melting point of 261° to 263° C.
