Uses

Used in Agricultural Applications:
1-methoxy-1-methyl-3-phenylurea is used as a herbicide for the control of unwanted vegetation in various crops. It functions by inhibiting the formation of gibberellins, which are essential hormones for plant growth and development, thereby acting as a growth regulator.
Used in Pharmaceutical Development:
1-methoxy-1-methyl-3-phenylurea is used as a potential candidate in the development of new pharmaceuticals. Its unique structure and properties make it a valuable tool for researchers and scientists in the field of medicine, as it may contribute to the creation of novel therapeutic agents.

1-methyl-1-methoxy-3-phenylurea synthetic method

The invention discloses a synthesis method of 1-methyl-1-methoxyl-3-phenylurea. The synthesis method comprises the following steps of carrying out gasification reaction of phenylamine and light in an organic solvent to obtain phenyl isocyanate; reacting an organic solvent solution of phenyl isocyanate with hydroxylamine sulphate in an alkaline aqueous solution in the presence of a catalyst A to obtain 1-hydroxyl-3-phenylurea; reacting 1-hydroxyl-3-phenylurea with dimethyl sulphate in the alkaline condition in the presence of a catalyst B to obtain 1-methyl-1-methoxyl-3-phenylurea. The synthesis method of 1-methyl-1-methoxyl-3-phenylurea has the advantages of being simple and direct in process, high in product purity, easy in control of production processes, and the like.

Investigating N-methoxy-N′-aryl ureas in oxidative C-H olefination reactions: An unexpected oxidation behaviour

Herein, we report a urea derived directing group for mild and highly selective oxidative C-H bond olefination. Subsequent intramolecular Michael addition affords dihydroquinazolinones in good yields. The N-O bond of the urea substrate exhibits superior oxidative behaviour compared to a variety of other external oxidants. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.

Photochemical transformation of aqueous para-halogenophenylureas: Evidence for the intermediary formation of carbenes

N-Substituted 4-iminocyclohexa-2,5-dienylidenes (λ(max) = 300 and 405 nm) are detected at pulse end upon laser flash photolysis of aqueous monuron and metobromuron. In oxygenated medium these carbenes are converted into N-substituted iminoquinone-O-oxides
