Synthesis and transformations of chloro derivatives of 4,7-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thladiazole

5-Chloro-4, 7-dioxo- and 5,6-dichloro-4,7-dioxobenzo-2,1,3-thiadiazoles were synthesized, and their reduction to the corresponding dihydroxy derivatives was studied. The bis(semicarbazone) and bis (thiosemicarbazone) of the 5-chloro derivative were obtained, and their antivirus activities were determined.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1344–1346, October, 1982.
