Thiadiazole derivatives, such as 1,2,3-thiadiazole, 1,2,5-thiadiazole, benzo©[1,2,5]thiadiazole, and benzo12[1,2,3]thiadiazole, have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional chemical and physical properties. These molecules, which contain sulfur and nitrogen atoms in their heterocyclic structure, have a variety of applications in agriculture, materials, and pharmaceuticals. In this review, we examine the most commonly used synthetic methods for these compounds, with a focus on the most recent techniques, including green synthesis, solid-phase chemistry, and catalytic processes, which enable greater efficiency, improved selectivity, and reduced environmental impact. Advances in the structural modification of these molecules to improve their photophysical properties and biocompatibility are also discussed. Finally, we highlight future research directions and emerging applications of thiadiazole derivatives across molecular medicine, nanotechnology, and agriculture, underscoring their potential to revolutionize multiple scientific and technological fields.
