A general study of the iron-catalyzed reaction of urea with nucleophiles is here presented. The carbamoylation of alcohols allows for the synthesis of N-unsubstituted (primary) carbamates, including present drugs (Felbamate and Meprobamat, without the necessity to apply phosgene and related derivatives. Using amines as nucleophiles gave rise to the respective mono-and disubstituted ureas via selective transamidation reaction. These atom-economical transformations provide a direct and selective access to valuable compounds from cheap and readily available urea using a simple Lewis-acidic iron(Icatalyst.

Zirconocene dichloride (Cp2ZrCl2) has been shown to be an effective catalyst for the transamidation of primary amides with amines in cyclohexane at 80°C in 5-24 hours. For favourable substrates, the reaction can be performed at temperatures as low as 30°C.
