N 1-(1,2-Diarylethenyl)-N 2-(alkyl- or arylaminocarbonyl)benzamidines are easily prepared in good to high yields (61-90%) by reaction of various isocyanates with N 1-(1,2-diarylethenyl)benzamidines in tetrahydrofuran. When this addition reaction of the isocyanates (and also of phenyl isothiocyanate) with the amidines is performed in boiling toluene in the presence of catalytic amounts of quinuolidine the resultant N 1,N 2-disubstituted benzamidines are cyclized to give substituted 2-oxo- or 2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,3,5-triazines in yields of 31-92%.
