Synthesis of thiocarbohydrazide can be done by reaction of carbon disulfide with hydrazine (hydrazinolysis) in water at 0ˇăC giving 25% yield (based on [hydrazine]). However, in this article, we achieve a 96% yield (based on [hydrazine]) by carrying out the reaction in methanol at 24ˇăC. The thiocarbohydrazide is then used to synthesize 1,5-bis (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde) dithiocarbohydrazone. By refluxing the latter compound in pyridine at 80ˇăC, it decomposes and rearranges to give salicylaldehyde azine. %U http://www.sciencedomain.org/abstract/20454
