Abstract Reaction of N′-acyl-N, N-dimethylamidines with hydrogen sulfide in acetic acid gave N-thioacylbenzarmides in almost quantitative yields. S-Ethylation of the N- thioacylbenzamides with iodoethane gave N-aroylthio-imidates in excellent yields. Reaction of the N-aroylthioimidates with acetamidine, benzamidine, or guanidine in ethanol gave s- triazines in 60–93% yield.
