- Kinetics and mechanism of the aminolysis of aryl thiocarbamates: Effects of the non-leaving group
-
The kinetics of the aminolysis of aryl thiocarbamates [ATC: H 2NC(=O)SC6H4Z] with benzylamines (XC 6H4CH2NH2) in acetonitrile at 10.0°C have been studied. The rate order with variation of the non-leaving amino group, RNH, in RNHC(=O)SC6H4Z is NH2 s) effects of the RNH group are insignificant, and the strength of push to expel the leaving group in the tetrahedral transition state is the sole, important effect. The strong push provided by the NH2 group, the negative ρxz (-0.38) value, the size of βz (-0.54), and failure of the reactivity-selectivity principle are all consistent with the concerted mechanism. The kinetic isotope effects involving deuterated amine nucleophiles (XC6H4CH2ND2) are normal (kH/kD ≈ 1.40-1.73) suggesting a hydrogen-bonded cyclic transition state.

- An improved method for the preparation of alkyl/arylurea derivatives using chlorocarbonylsulfenyl chloride as carbonylating agent
-
A convenient procedure has been developed for preparation of aminesubstituted or monomethylamine-substituted alkyl/arylurea derivatives. The method comprises two steps-reaction of an alkyl/aryl amine with chlorocarbonylsulfenyl chloride in a non-polar solvent to produce an alkyl/arylcarbonylsulfenyl chloride, then reaction of this alkyl/ arylcarbonylsulfenyl chloride with ammonia or monomethylamine in a two-phase reaction with a phase-transfer catalyst, to produce the corresponding alkyl/aryl-substituted urea.

- Degradation kinetics and mechanism of an oxadiazole derivative, design of a stable drug product for BMS-708163, a γ-secretase inhibitor drug candidate
-
The stability of a 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivative, BMS-708163, A, was studied in the cosolvent mixture of acetonitrile-water at various pH values, in the solid state and in the presence of various excipients. The objective of this study was to develop a deep understanding of the stability of compound A based on its degradation kinetics and mechanism to enable design of a robust drug product. A series of isotopically 13C- and 15N-labeled compounds were synthesized and their degradation was studied by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance to prove the degradation mechanism. Compound A exhibited maximum stability at a pH range of 3-5. In forced degradation studies, higher or lower pH resulted in an increase in degradation rate. At low pH, the N-4 atom on the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring is protonated, followed by nucleophilic attack on the activated methine carbon to cause ring opening to form aryl nitrile degradation product, compound B. At high pH, the nucleophilic attack occurs on the methine carbon to generate an anion on N-4. Subsequent proton capture from a proton donor, such as ambient water, facilitates ring opening to generate compound B. In the absence of a proton donor, such as in dry acetonitrile, anion on N-4 will go back to compound A. Therefore, compound A is stable in absence of proton donor. This study defines the package condition and microenvironmental pH under which compound A can be formulated into a stable product.

- Indium(III)-Catalyzed Synthesis of Primary Carbamates and N-Substituted Ureas
-
An indium triflate-catalyzed synthesis of primary carbamates from alcohols and urea as an ecofriendly carbonyl source has been developed. Various linear, branched, and cyclic alcohols were converted into the corresponding carbamates in good to excellent yields. This method also provided access to N-substituted ureas by carbamoylation of amines. All the products were obtained by simple filtration or crystallization, without the need for chromatographic purification. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the carbamoylation reaction proceeds through activation of urea by O-coordination with indium, followed by nucleophilic attack by the alcohol or amine on the carbonyl center of urea. The inexpensive and easily available starting materials and catalyst, the short reaction times, and the ease of product isolation highlight the inherent practicality of the developed method.

- Synthesis of Biuret Derivatives as Potential HIV-1 Protease Inhibitors Using (LDHs-g-HMDI-Citric Acid), as a Green Recyclable Catalyst
-
In this study, a novel catalyst based on layered double hydroxides (LDHs) attached by hexamethylene-1,6-diisocyanate (HMDI) and citric acid (LDHs-g-HMDI-Citric acid) is reported and used to increase the yield of biurets synthesis. Biuret derivatives 5a–n were prepared by reaction of several phenyl allophanates (3a–d), which prepared from the reaction of phenyl chloroformate and urea derivatives (2a–d), with variously substituted amines (4a–g) in the presence of LDHs-g-HMDI-Citric acid as a reusable heterogeneous catalyst at reflux condition for 60–180 min. These biurets (5a–n) were evaluated for human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitory activity by HIV-1 p24 antigen ELISA kit and six of them (5n, 5i, 5j, 5 m, 5f, and 5a) showed moderate activity on HIV-1 virus with IC50 values ranging from 55 to 100 μM compared with the azidothymidine as the reference drug (IC50 = 0.11 μM). Results of the in vitro test and docking study were in good correlation.

- Green and efficient synthesis of thioureas, ureas, primary: O -thiocarbamates, and carbamates in deep eutectic solvent/catalyst systems using thiourea and urea
-
An efficient and general catalysis process was developed for the direct preparation of various primary O-thiocarbamates/carbamates as well as monosubstituted thioureas/ureas by using thiourea/urea as biocompatible thiocarbonyl (carbonyl) sources. This procedure used choline chloride/tin(ii) chloride [ChCl][SnCl2]2 with a dual role as a green catalyst and reaction medium to afford the desired products in moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, the DES can be easily recovered and reused for seven cycles with no significant loss in its activity. Besides, the method shows very good performance for synthesizing the desired products on a large scale.

- Enzyme-Inspired Lysine-Modified Carbon Quantum Dots Performing Carbonylation Using Urea and a Cascade Reaction for Synthesizing 2-Benzoxazolinone
-
Catalysts as the dynamo of chemical reactions along with solvents play paramount roles in organic transformations in long-lasting modes. Thus, developing effective and biobased catalysts in nontoxic solvents is highly in demand. In this report, carbon quantum dots (CQDs) functionalized with-lysine (Lys-CQDs) were generated from entirely nature-derived materials; they were demonstrated to be a promising catalyst for C-N bond formation in choline chloride urea (ChCl/U), a natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES). Among a number of synthesized CQDs, Lys-CQD turned out to be a powerful catalyst in the model reaction with aniline to afford phenyl urea. This type of transformation is important because aniline as a nucleophile has low activity, and urea is a very weak electrophile but an abundant natural source of the carbonyl moiety at the same time. The optimized reaction was performed under a highly desirable condition without using tedious and toxic workup processes at a low temperature (37 °C for aliphatic amines and 60 °C for aniline derivatives), as well as by embracing the broad scope of products in good to high yields even with weak nucleophiles such as aniline. A proposed acid-activated mechanism was suggested for the model reaction that was further confirmed by detecting ammonia as the leaving group. To show further multifunctionality of the catalyst, a cascade catalysis approach was developed for synthesizing 2-benzoxazolinone, which was furnished in a two-step transformation, starting from 2-aminophenol. Using X-ray crystallography, the structure of the final product in the cascade reaction was also determined. The catalyst was characterized using various analytical techniques including SEM, TEM, AFM, XRD, IR spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, DLS, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Measuring the acid/base sites by back titration, the catalyst was shown to be highly functionalized by the lysine functional group. The size of the catalyst was determined to be in the range of 1-8 nm, having a well-dispersed surface. In all, Lys-modified CQD, as a metal-free catalyst, was synthesized, characterized, and optimized for carbonylation, as well as a cascade reaction, under mild conditions. The whole process including catalyst synthesis and organic transformations is economically competitive and fulfills all requirements toward viability.

- Ammonium Chloride-Promoted Rapid Synthesis of Monosubstituted Ureas under Microwave Irradiation
-
Monosubstituted ureas are important scaffolds in organic chemistry. They appear in various biologically active compounds and serve as versatile precursors in synthesis. Monosubstituted ureas were originally prepared using toxic and hazardous phosgene equivalents. Modern methods include transamidation of urea and nucleophilic addition to cyanate salts, both of which suffer from a narrow substrate scope due to the need for a strong acid and prolonged reaction times. We hereby report that ammonium chloride can promote the reaction between amines and potassium cyanate to generate monosubstituted ureas in water. This method proceeds rapidly under microwave irradiation and tolerates a broad range of functional groups. Unlike previous strategies, it is compatible with other nucleophiles, acid-labile moieties, and most of the common protecting groups. The products precipitate out of solution, allowing facile isolation without column chromatography.

- An efficient one-pot synthesis of industrially valuable primary organic carbamates and: N -substituted ureas by a reusable Merrifield anchored iron(ii)-anthra catalyst [FeII(Anthra-Merf)] using urea as a sustainable carbonylation source
-
An efficient synthesis of primary carbamates and N-substituted ureas is explored with a newly developed heterogeneous polymer supported iron catalyst in the presence of a sustainable carbonylation source. The Merrifield anchored iron(ii)-anthra catalyst [FeII(Anthra-Merf)] was synthesized by functionalization of Merrifield polymer followed by grafting of iron metal. The catalyst [FeII(Anthra-Merf)] was characterized by several techniques, like SEM, EDAX, TGA, PXRD, XPS, FTIR, CHN, AAS and UV-Vis analysis. The designed polymer embedded [FeII(Anthra-Merf)] complex is a remarkably successful catalyst for the synthesis of primary organic carbamates and N-substituted ureas by using safe carbonylation agent urea with different derivatives of alcohols and amines, respectively. The reported catalyst is a potential candidate towards contributing a satisfactory yield of isolated products under suitable reaction conditions. The catalyst is recyclable and almost non-leaching in nature after six runs with an insignificant drop in catalytic activity. Thus we found an economical and viable catalyst [FeII(Anthra-Merf)] for primary carbamates and N-substituted urea synthesis under moderate reaction conditions.

- Catalytic hydration of cyanamides with phosphinous acid-based ruthenium(ii) and osmium(ii) complexes: scope and mechanistic insights
-
The synthesis of a large variety of ureas R1R2NC(O)NH2 (R1 and R2 = alkyl, aryl or H; 26 examples) was successfully accomplished by hydration of the corresponding cyanamides R1R2NCN using the phosphinous acid-based complexes [MCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PMe2OH)] (M = Ru (1), Os (2)) as catalysts. The reactions proceeded cleanly under mild conditions (40-70 °C), in the absence of any additive, employing low metal loadings (1 molpercent) and water as the sole solvent. In almost all the cases, the osmium complex 2 featured a superior reactivity in comparison to that of its ruthenium counterpart 1. In addition, for both catalysts, the reaction rates observed for the hydration of the cyanamide substrates were remarkably faster than those involving classical aliphatic and aromatic nitriles. Computational studies allowed us to rationalize all these trends. Thus, the calculations indicated that the presence of a nitrogen atom directly linked to the CN bond depopulates electronically the nitrile carbon by inductive effect when coordinated to the metal center, thus favouring the intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the OH group of the phosphinous acid ligand to this carbon. On the other hand, the higher reactivity of Os vs. Ru seems to be related with the lower ring strain on the incipient metallacycle that starts to form in the transition state associated with this key step in the catalytic cycle. Indirect experimental evidence of the generation of the metallacyclic intermediates was obtained by studying the reactivity of [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PMe2OH)] (1) towards dimethylcyanamide in methanol and ethanol. The reactions afforded compounds [RuCl(η6-p-cymene)(PMe2OR)(NCNMe2)][SbF6] (R = Me (5a), Et (5b)), resulting from the alcoholysis of the metallacycle, which could be characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

- A Straightforward Synthesis of N-Substituted Ureas from Primary Amides
-
A direct and convenient method for the preparation of N-substituted ureas is achieved by treating primary amides with phenyliodine diacetate (PIDA) in the presence of an ammonia source (NH 3 or ammonium carbamate) in MeOH. The use of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) as the solvent increases the electrophilicity of the hypervalent iodine species and allows the synthesis of electron-poor carboxamides. This transformation involves a nucleophilic addition of ammonia on the isocyanate intermediate generated in situ by a Hofmann rearrangement of the starting amide.

- A Physical Organic Approach to Tuning Reagents for Selective and Stable Methionine Bioconjugation
-
We report a data-driven, physical organic approach to the development of new methionine-selective bioconjugation reagents with tunable adduct stabilities. Statistical modeling of structural features described by intrinsic physical organic parameters was applied to the development of a predictive model and to gain insight into features driving the stability of adducts formed from the chemoselective coupling of oxaziridine and methionine thioether partners through Redox Activated Chemical Tagging (ReACT). From these analyses, a correlation between sulfimide stabilities and sulfimide ν (C=O) stretching frequencies was revealed. We exploited the rational gains in adduct stability exposed by this analysis to achieve the design and synthesis of a bis-oxaziridine reagent for peptide stapling. Indeed, we observed that a macrocyclic peptide formed by ReACT stapling at methionine exhibited improved uptake into live cells compared to an unstapled congener, highlighting the potential utility of this unique chemical tool for thioether modification. This work provides a template for the broader use of data-driven approaches to bioconjugation chemistry and other chemical biology applications.

Emerging applications in the field of chemical biology are currently limited by the lack of bioorthogonal reactions allowing both removal and linkage of chemical entities on complex biomolecules. We recently discovered a novel reaction between iminosydnones and strained alkynes leading to two products resulting from ligation and fragmentation of iminosydnones under physiological conditions. We now report the synthesis of a panel of substituted iminosydnones and the structure reactivity relationship between these compounds and strained alkyne partners. This study identified the most relevant substituents, which allow to increase the rate of the transformation and to develop a bifunctional cleavable linker with improved kinetics.

Amidoximes, obtained from the reaction of nitriles with hydroxylamine, underwent Tiemann rearrangement in the presence of benzenesulfonyl chlorides (TsCl or o-NsCl) to form the N-substituted cyanamides. Subsequently, acidic hydrolysis of the cyanamides afforded the corresponding N-monosubstituted ureas. The synthesis of N-monosubstituted ureas from nitriles was accomplished by three steps in one pot, which provides a direct access to versatile N-monosubstituted urea derivatives from a wide variety of nitriles.

The ureas were synthesized from amines and potassium cyanate, which on reaction with cyanoacetic acid in the presence of acetic anhydride in the same pot afforded cyanoacetylureas, which undergo cyclization in [TMG][Lac] as solvent as well as catalyst to afford 6-aminouracils. One-pot synthesis of cyanoacetylureas, efficient and rapid cyclization, better yield, shorter reaction time, easy workup procedure, and recyclability of the ionic liquid are some advantages of this procedure.

- Structure-activity relationship of 2,4,5-trioxoimidazolidines as inhibitors of thymidine phosphorylase
-
Novel non-nucleobase-derived inhibitors of the angiogenic enzyme, thymidine phosphorylase, have been identified using molecular modelling, synthesis and biological evaluation. These inhibitors are 2,4,5-trioxoimidazolidines bearing N-(substituted)phenylalkyl groups, together with, in most cases, N′-(CH2)n-carboxylic acid, ester or amide side chains. The best compound from this series is 3-(2,4,5-trioxo-3-phenylethyl- imidazolodin-1-yl)propionamide, with an IC50 of 40 μM against Escherichia coli TP. Molecular modelling suggests that this ligand, when complexed with closed-cleft human TP, would have the phenylalkyl group in the active site region normally occupied by a thymine-containing structure.

In the presence of aqueous trialkylammonium hydrogen carbonate, the Staudinger reaction leads to the intermediate formation of the corresponding isocyanate, which, in turn, reacts further with a nucleophilic reagent also present in the mixture and results in carbamoylation with good yield. On the basis of this reaction a practical carbamoylation procedure was devised and a comparative study on suitability of different solvents and phosphorus (III) derivatives for carbamoylation reaction was conducted. The versatility of the method was demonstrated by examples with different classes of nucleophilic compounds that included the aminomethyl resin and natural compounds that display poor solubility in organic solvents.

- Hybrid calix[4]arenes via ionic hydrogenation and transition-metal-mediated processes
-
We report the first application of ionic hydrogenation for the synthesis of upper-rim urea- or carbamate-derived hybrid calix[4]arenes. Subsequent metal-mediated transformations using 4-iodophenylurea calixarenes afforded structurally unique 1,3-di(biaryl)-, 1,3-di(biarylalkyne)-, or 1,3-(biaryl)(biarylalkyne)-derived hybrid calixarenes.

- Preparation of mono-, di-, and trisubstituted ureas by carbonylation of aliphatic amines with S,S-dimethyl dithiocarbonate
-
General procedures are reported to prepare N-alkylureas, N,N′-dialkylureas (both symmetrical and unsymmetrical), and N,N,N′-trialkylureas by carbonylation of aliphatic amines, employing S,S-dimethyl dithiocarbonate (DMDTC) as a phosgene substitute. All reactions were carried out in water. Symmetrical disubstituted ureas were prepared directly working at 60°C with a molar ratio of DMDTC:amine = 1:2, preferably under nitrogen. Unsymmetrical ureas were prepared in two steps via S-methyl N-alkyl-thiocarbamate intermediates, which are formed selectively in the first step at room temperature. These intermediates react in the second step with ammonia or various aliphatic amines, both primary and secondary, at temperatures varying between 50 and 70°C. All the target ureas were obtained in high yields (28 examples, average yield 94%) and with very high purity (generally >99.2%). Also to be noted is the recovery of a co-product of industrial interest, methanethiol, in an amount of two moles for each mole of DMDTC, with complete exploitation of the reagent.

- Versatile access to benzhydryl-phenylureas through an unexpected rearrangement during microwave-enhanced synthesis of hydantoins
-
(Equation presented) A new access to benzhydryl-phenylureas is described. These new interesting urea derivatives were obtained by reaction of substituted benzils with substituted phenylureas under microwave irradiation. Phenylthiourea, when reacted with benzil, gave 3-phenyl-thiohydantoin. Moreover, benzylurea, as phenethylurea, gave the corresponding 3-substituted hydantoin derivatives, demonstrating that only phenylurea derivatives can result in benzhydryl-phenylureas under the applied conditions. This new reaction proved to be an easy access to substituted 1-benzhydryl-3-phenyl-ureas.

- Condensation of thiourea derivatives with carbonyl compounds: One-pot synthesis of N-alkyl-1, 3-thiazol-2-amines and of 3-alkyl-1, 3-thiazolimines
-
The reactions of ketones and AT-substituted thioureas, in the presence of HC1 (or HBr) and DMSO afford mixtures of the title compounds which are easily separated on a silica gel column. This method avoids the classical use of a-haloketones. The mechanism of these reactions involves the enolization of ketones and the activation of thiourea sulfur, probably by oxygen transfer from DMSO.

- Reductive alkylation of urea: A practical route to substituted ureas
-
Conditions are disclosed for the formation of either mono- or di-substituted ureas by reductive alkylation, which are readily adaptable to large scale preparations. Dehydrating agents such as acetyl chloride or trimethylsilyl chloride effectively promote the condensation of ureas and aldehydes. Reduction of the adducts affords the mono- or di-substituted ureas in high yields.

- Highly selective aldose reductase inhibitors. 1. 3-(Arylalkyl)-2,4,5- trioxoimidazolidine-1-acetic acids
-
A series of 3-(arylalkyl)-2,4,5-trioxoimidazolidine-1-acetic acids (1) was prepared and tested for aldose reductase (AR) and aldehyde reductase (ALR) inhibitory activities. These compounds showed strong inhibitory activity against AR without significant inhibitory activity for ALR. The ratio of IC50(ALR)IC50(AR) was > 1000 in some compounds. On the basis of pharmacological tests such as the recovery of reduced motor nerve conduction velocity and toxicological profile, 3-(3-nitrobenzyl)-2,4,5- trioxoimidazolidine-1-acetic acid (NZ-314) was selected as the candidate for clinical development.
