The present study reports the new facile methodology for synthesis of symmetrical and asymmetrical thioureas by an one-pot reaction of amine, carbon disulfide and oxidants: hydrogen peroxide, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)/sodium percarbonate system or air. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H and 13C NMR and MS methods. Reaction mechanism has been proposed on the basis of reaction intermediate isolation and their structure determination. The synthetic benefits of the presented methods is reflected in the operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, recycling of solvent, high purity and yield of products, absence of dangerous by-products and technological applicability at industrial scale. Considering commercial importance of the thioureas, it can be emphasized that implementation of the optimal synthesis of thiourea, based on presented methods, at industrial level of production would provide concurrent alternative to existing technologies in use.

A series of functionalized sesamol–oxazine and quinoline–oxazine hybrids have been synthesized via one-pot reaction of sesamol/6-hydroxyquinoline, aromatic amines, and methanal. The structures of all the novel compounds were confirmed by spectral data. The structures of the synthesized hybrids were also confirmed by X-ray crystallographic studies. Mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, short reaction times, simple workup, and high yields of products are salient features of this methodology.

A synthesis of N-alkyl and N,N-dialkyl-O-ethyl and O-isopropyl thiocarbamates by oxidation of ammonium salt of ethyl and isopropylxanthogenic acid in a presence of sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen peroxide were performed. Ammonium salt of ethyl and isopropylxanthogenic acid was obtained by the reaction of alkylammonium sulfate and sodium ethyl and isopropyl xanthate. Studies on a dependence of N-ethyl-O-isopropylthiocarbamate yield and purity with respect to reaction parameters (reaction time, molar ratio of oxidant and ethylamonium salt of isopropylxanthogenic acid) were performed. Optimal reaction conditions for synthesis of N-alkyl and N,N-dialkyl-O-ethyl and O-isopropyl thiocarbamates were established. Synthesized compounds have been fully characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR and MS data, while purity has been determined by GC method. A plausible pathway for the N-alkyl and N,N-dialkyl-O-ethyl and O-isopropyl thiocarbamates synthesis, in the presence of the oxidative agents sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen peroxide, was proposed. The presented synthetic methods has been developed at laboratory and applied at semi-industrial level. The developed optimal method provides a powerful and versatile method for the preparation of N-alkyl and N,N-dialkyl-O-ethyl and O-isopropyl thiocarbamates. This new optimized method offer several benefits, namely, simple operation, mild reaction conditions, bypass of hazardous organic solvents, moderately toxic and inexpensive reagents, and also short reaction times and high product yields.

A simple and appropriate procedure for the synthesis of quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione derivatives from isocyanides, aniline and isocyanate via the Cu-catalyzed intramolecular C-H activation reaction is reported. The advantages of this method are one-pot conditions, accessible starting materials- catalyst, high yield of products, and short reaction times. The structures are confirmed spectroscopically (1H- and 13C-NMR, IR and EI-MS) and by elemental analyses.

Tetrahydropyran (THP) rings are common in several natural products, therefore, various strategies are being developed to synthesize these rings. The present work described the study of a one-pot synthesis of 2,4,6-trisubstituted tetrahydropyran compounds promoted by the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [BMIM][PF6] through a Barbier–Prins reaction between allyl bromide and aldehydes. The use of [BMIM][PF6] gave Prins products from several aldehydes in good yields and reaction times. We also found that the anion, PF6-, accelerates the Barbier reaction when used alone, and the excess SnBr2 from the reaction conditions of the Barbier reaction leads to the formation of the THP rings, thus acting as a catalyst for Prins cyclization. Additionally, we demonstrate that ionic liquid can be recovered and reused five times in the preparation of 4-bromo-tetrahydro-2,6-diphenyl-2H-pyran without significant yield loss.

Nanofibre sepiolite catalyzed the rapid, clean, and highly efficient synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromene derivatives by a one-pot, three-component condensation of a series of aldehydes, various enolizable C–H bonds (such as dimedone, α-naphthol, resorcinol, and 4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one), and malononitrile in a mixture of water/ethanol. The present method offers several advantages such as high to excellent yields, short reaction times, mild reaction conditions, simple procedure, use of inexpensive, non-toxic, and naturally available catalyst, easy isolation of the products, and no need for column chromatography. The catalyst could be easily separated from the reaction mixture and can be reused for many consecutive trials without a significant decline in its reactivity.

AbstractThe reaction of benzil, an aromatic aldehyde, and ammonium acetate in ethanol at reflux in the presence of tributylhexadecylphosphonium bromide as catalyst affords a 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazole. The present methodology offers several advantages over the literature methods, including excellent yields, shorter reaction times, environmentally benign milder reaction conditions, cost-effectiveness of catalyst, easy workup, and purification of products by nonchromatographic methods.

Here we report a facile and efficient triphosgene-assisted one-pot conversion of aldehydes/ketones into nitriles/amides. The triphosgene, a kind of phosgene alternative, containing both ester linkage and chloromethyl units, easily reacts with oximes for the preparation of nitriles/amides. However, the reaction of oximes with triphosgene can’t fully convert corresponding nitriles/amides due to hydrolysis of oximes to aldehydes or ketones. Our protocol tandem proceeds smoothly without the use of organic base and metal catalysts. Diverse functionalized aromatic, aliphatic, and allylic aldehydes/ketones incorporating biomass-derived platform compounds were successfully converted to nitriles and amides in excellent yields. Compared to step-by-step reaction, this tandem strategy is characterized by multi-step reaction in one pot, mild reaction conditions, and fewer by-products.

A optimized synthesis of N-alkyl, N,N-dialkyl- and N-cycloalkyl-O-isobutyl thioncarbamates by aminolysis of sodium isobutylxanthogenic acid (NaiBXAc) and primary, secondary and cycloalkyl amines was developed at laboratory scale and applied at semi-industrial level. Studies on dependence of N-n-propyl-O-isopropylthiocarbamate yield and purity with respect to reaction parameters: reaction time and molar ratio of n-propylamine and NaiBXAc, were performed. In such way, optimal reaction conditions for synthesis of N-alkyl, N,N-dialkyl- and N-cycloalkyl-O-isobutyl thioncarbamates, by aminolysis of NaiBXAc, were established. Also, comparative results of thioncarbamates synthesis starting from potassium isobutyl xanthate (KiBX) and corresponding amines in presence of different oxidants: hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite and new oxidative agent potassium peroxodisulfate were evaluated. Synthesized compounds have been fully characterized by FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR and MS data, elemental analysis and purity have been determined by gas chromatographic method (GC). According to our knowledge, ten synthesized thioncarbamates are for the first time characterized. Synthesized compounds could be used as selective reagents for flotation of copper and zinc ores. The presented methods offer several benefits, namely, high product yields and purity, simple operation, mild reaction conditions without use of hazardous organic solvents, while some of them could be implemented on industrial scale production.

This tandem transformation was performed in excellent yields (91–98%) via in situ selenoamidation and a subsequent oxidative dimerization reaction. This method features relatively mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, straightforward separation of the products, and the utilization of inexpensive reagents.
