Electrochemical oxidation of catechols to corresponding o‐quinones was successfully performed in aqueous solution by electrolysis at the controlled potentials. Quinones derived from catechols, participate in Michael addition reactions with 5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐2‐thiol and via EC mechanism, converted to corresponding 5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐ylthio‐benzene‐1,2‐diol derivatives (4 and 4′). The products have been characterized using IR, ^1^H NMR, ^13^C NMR, X‐ray, and mass spectral data. J. Heterocyclic Chem., 46, 443 (2009).

## Abstract Electrochemical oxidation of catechols (**1a–c**) has been studied in the presence of 3‐mercapto‐1,2,4‐triazole (**3**) as a nucleophile in water/acetonitrile (90/10) solutions. The results revealed that the quinones derived from catechols (**1a–c**) participate in the Michael addition
## Abstract The synthesis of potential fluorescent active 4‐(5‐aryl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)phenylhydrazine derivatives was accomplished in three steps. The key step was the dehydration cyclization of 1,2‐diacylhydrazines to form the 1,3,4‐oxadiazole ring by use of acetic anhydride/perchloric acid mix
