For example, 1,3,4,6- buta-1,3-dienes derived from aromatic and aliphatic tetramethylperhydroimidazo[4,5 - d]imidazol - 2,5 - dione amines (Scheme 2). The criss-cross addition on 1a in

Reactions of 1,4-diazabuta-1,3-dienes 1 are rare in the
literature. Thus, Sakamoto et al.3 described the reaction

On the other hand, criss-cross cycloadditions on 2,3-diazabuta-1,3-dienes are well documented. In 1917Bailey and Moore5 described the reaction between somearomatic aldazines and thiocyanic acid or cyanic acid inacetic acid. The reaction was carried out by a slowaddition of potassium thiocyanate or cyanate into asolution of the aldazine in acetic acid. Similarly Schantlet al.6 prepared criss-cross products from various Scheme 1.

Shantl's6 method, only traces of the desired products
were obtained. In some cases, the major isolated
product was the corresponding salt of the amine due to
the instability of substituted 1,4-diazabuta-1,3-dienes 1
in acid (Scheme 4).
Slow addition of the substituted 1,4-diazabuta-1,3-diene
1 into potassium isocyanate dissolved in carefully dried
acetic acid, improved the procedure. Due to the large
difference in reactivity between HNCS and HNCO, we
were able to obtain mixed cycloadducts 3 (Scheme 3) in
a one-pot procedure, when substituted 1,4-diazabuta-
1,3-dienes 1 were added to a mixture of both acids. We
examined the influence of concentration, as well as
Scheme 3.
We attempted to synthesize these products by criss-cross cycloaddition of HNCS and HNCO with 1,4-di-substituted Scheme 4.
