The present study emphasizes on the dealklylation of 3‐aryl‐5‐alkyl‐2‐oxo‐Δ4‐1,3,4‐oxadiazoles when reacted with formamide resulting in the formation of 2‐aryl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3(4H)‐ones as major product. Subsequent reactions of 2‐aryl‐2H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3(4H)‐one gave triazolo[3,4‐b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles and triazolo[3,4‐b][1,3,4]thiadiazines derivatives incorporated with 1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐one.
