Treatment of arylglyoxal monohydrates with tetrasulfur tetranitride in p ‐dioxane at reflux afforded 2‐aroyl‐5‐arylimidizoles and 2‐aroyl‐5‐aryloxazoles in 10 to 31% and 17 to 32% yields, respectively. With non‐hydrate of arylglyoxals, yields of the latter increase somewhat, whereas essentially no changes in yields of the former were observed. A mechanism is proposed for the formation of the products.
