Synthesis of symmetrical and asymmetrical phenethyl thioureas was accomplished in two steps with an overall yield of 75-80%. Condensation of a substituted phenethyl amine with thiocarbonyldiimidazole, followed by treatment with one more equivalent of the phenethylamine in DMF, yielded the desired symmetrical phenethyl thiourea compound as a crystalline solid. In the case of asymmetrical thiourea derivatives, different amines were selected and condensed using a similar procedure. A series of 45 thioureas was synthesized. Copyright Taylor & Francis, Inc.
