Benzofuran is an aromatic heterocyclic organic compound with the chemical formula C8H6O. It is a colorless oily liquid at room temperature with an aromatic odor. Benzofuran can be volatilized with water vapor and can be decomposed by potassium permanganate and other oxidants. It is an intermediate for the preparation of amiodarone and indene resin. Benzofuran derivatives are important pharmaceutical intermediates.

Benzofuran is the heterocyclic compound consisting of fused benzene and furan rings. This colourless liquid is a component of coal tar.Benzofuran is extracted from coal tar. It is also obtained by dehydrogenation of 2-ethylphenol.
Thiadiazoles are a subfamily of azoles. Structurally, they are five-membered heterocyclic compounds containing two nitrogen atoms and one sulfur atom, and two double bonds, forming an aromatic ring. Depending on the relative positions of the heteroatoms, there are four possible structures; these forms do not interconvert and are therefore structural isomers rather than tautomers. These compounds themselves are rarely synthesized and have no particular utility, however, compounds that use them as structural motifs are fairly common in pharmacology.
