Abstract:
The title compound, C(9)H(8)N(4)O(3)S, shows a layer structure constructed from inter-molecular O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. Inter-atomic distances suggest that extensive, but not uniform, π-electron delocalization is present in the tetra-zole rings and extends over the exocyclic C-S bond.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Acid Halides, Esters, and Acid Anhydrides
The IUPAC and common names of acid halides are derived from the corresponding carboxylic acids, by changing “ic acid” to “yl halide.” For example, as shown below, the IUPAC name ethanoyl chloride is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetyl chloride, is obtained from acetic acid.
