Lithium aluminium hydride reduction of bis-unsymmetric-diaryloxamides 3 is difficult to accomplish especially for the sterically hindered mesityl derivative. Using microwaves LAH reduction of 3a,d was successful in a short time, however, with cleavage of the ether linkage to give compounds 11a,d. Extension of this method enabled the reduction of bis-oxamide derivatives 13 to the corresponding tetraamine derivative 14 which was then converted to the bis-imidazolidinium salt 15. Application of this method led to rapid reduction of unsymmetric N,N'-diaryloxamides 16 to the corresponding N,N'- diarylethylenediamines 17 which were converted to their corresponding imidazolidinium salts 18. the Partner Organisations 2014.
