The photolysis of four chloro‐substituted thiadiazoles (3,4‐dichloro‐, 3‐chloro‐ and 3‐chloro‐4‐fluoro‐1,2,5‐thiadiazole; 3,5‐dichloro‐1,2,4‐thiadiazole) and 3,4‐dicyano‐1,2,5‐thiadiazole was investigated in inert solid‐argon matrices at cryogenic temperatures by means of UV irradiation at selected wavelengths of 254 and 280 nm. The photolysis products were identified by mid‐IR and UV spectroscopy. Evidence for the existence of three novel pseudohalides, namely, chloronitrile sulfide (ClCNS), chlorine isothiocyanate (ClNCS) and cyanogen N ‐sulfide (NCCNS), was provided by direct spectroscopic methods supported by quantum chemical calculations. Ground‐state geometries, vibrational frequencies, IR intensities, and UV excitation energies of ClCNS, ClNCS and NCCNS were obtained from calculations using the B3LYP, CCSD(T) and SAC‐CI methods and the aug‐cc‐pV(T+d)Z basis set.
