Novel synthetic routes to (3aα,6aα)-1,3-dibenzyl hexahydro-1H-thieno[3,4-d]imidazol-2(3H)-one 5,5-dioxide, a known intermediate in the synthesis of biotin are provided. A novel synthetic route from this intermediate to biotin is also disclosed.

A highly efficient stereospecific synthesis of the biotin precursor (3aα,6aα)-1,3-dibenzylhexahydro-1H-thienoimidazol-2(3H)-one 1,1-dioxide (6) is reported, by the cyclisation of the urea (5), which was obtained from the amine (4), (4) itself being prepared by the reaction of the dibromide (2) with benzylamine.
