An efficient palladium-catalyzed synthesis of symmetrically disubstituted ureas via oxidative carbonylation of primary amines is described. The reactions are carried out in the presence of a large excess of carbon dioxide as reaction medium or under solvent-free conditions. The adopted catalyst such as potassium tetraiodopalladate, stable and easy to prepare, allows the use of air as a cheap oxidizing agent. The reactions yield urea and water as the only by-product and proceed with high efficiency with aliphatic and aromatic amines as well. While with primary aliphatic amines, no significant improvement on reactivity is observed when carbon dioxide is used as a solvent, in comparison with the conventional ones, a remarkable high efficiency is obtained with aromatic amines, which shows a dramatic increase in the performance of the catalyst, in terms of turnover number (TON), the highest known so far for this kind of process. Reactions take place in two-phase systems consisting of a homogeneous liquid phase formed by the CO2 expanded amine solution containing the catalyst and a supercritical phase of CO2, CO, O2, and N2.

The invention provides a novel reaction system for synthesizing a symmetric urea compound by taking CO2 as a carbonylation reagent, wherein Lewis base and hydrosilane are used as accelerators and efficiently enable an aromatic/aliphatic primary amine compound to react with normal-pressure CO2 to generate corresponding symmetric urea compounds containing different functional groups under mild conditions (100 DEG C, diglyme). According to the method, normal-pressure CO2 is used as an environmentally-friendly non-toxic carbonylation reagent, and cheap Lewis base and PMHS (industrial silicon waste) are used as accelerators, so that the use of toxic carbonylation reagents, isocyanate, high-pressure CO2, expensive dehydrating agents and precious metals is avoided, purification and separation ofintermediates are not needed, pure products can be obtained only through simple suction filtration and separation after the reaction is finished, and the method is an efficient and novel synthesis method and has high industrial application value.

An efficient regioselective iodination of N-phenylureas was developed using iodine/trichloroisocyanuric acid in acetonitrile at room temperature. This protocol proved to be effective on a broad range of substituted N-phenylureas, forming the p-iodinated compounds in 65-96% yield under mild and neutral conditions.
