A Novel Mild Method for the Synthesis of 3-Amino-4-(5-aryl-1H-1,2,4-Triazol-3-yl)Furazans

 A straightforward and efficient method for the synthesis of (1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)furazans was developed based on oxidative cyclization of N’-arylidene amidrazones of furazan-3-carboxylic acid using the accessible and non-toxic phenyliodoso diacetate.
