Iron-mediated desulphurization approach: synthesis of cyanamides and their conversions

The iron-mediated efficient multi-component method has been demonstrated for the synthesis of substituted cyanamides from isothiocyanates under mild reaction conditions. Subsequent nucleophilic addition and desulfurization are involved in this proposed synthetic methodology. All the reactions are rapid, facile, and accomplished at room temperature. A variety of substrates readily underwent the optimized reaction conditions to provide their respective target products in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, we have confirmed that no other by-products could be identified during our experimental reaction process.

The synthesis of aryl cyanamides through C-N cross-coupling

The methodology for the preparation of aromatic cyanamides has been demonstrated. The present method involves consecutive desulphurization/C-N cross-coupling reaction. Cheap, readily available and air stable cobalt catalyst has been used for this methodology. In addition, the substrate scope has been explored.

The synthesis of arylcyanamides: A copper-catalyzed consecutive desulfurization and C-N cross-coupling strategy

A one pot highly efficient and simple protocol for the construction of aromatic cyanamides from thiourea via desulphurization/C-N cross coupling using a cheap, readily available and air stable copper source as a catalyst has been described. Various iodobenzenes could give their respective C-N cross-coupled products in good to excellent yields under optimized reaction conditions. Further, the substrate scope has been explored.

One-pot three-component tandem reaction: Synthesis of aryl/alkyl cyanamides libraries and their further conversion into tetrazole derivatives

We have developed methodology for the synthesis of aryl/alkyl cyanamides from amines in one-pot four steps reaction using cheap, readily available and air stable copper source as catalyst under mild reaction conditions. We have also studied the application of cyanamides. In this connection, we could construct aryl tetrazolamine from cyanamides using click reaction.

Cobalt-promoted one-pot reaction of isothiocyanates toward the synthesis of aryl/alkylcyanamides and substituted tetrazoles

[Figure not available: see fulltext.] The synthesis of cyanamides and tetrazoles from isothiocyanates through tandem reaction using cobalt catalyst has been demonstrated. In the case of tetrazole preparation, the reaction involved addition/desulfurization/nucleophilic addition/electrocyclization, whereas aromatic cyanamides were constructed from isothiocyanates through addition/desulfurization. Cheap cobalt sulfate was used for the synthesis of various cyanamides and tetrazoles. In addition, cobalt catalyst was found to be desulfurization reagent that has not been previously reported. The final products have been obtained from starting precursors in good to high yield.
