This conversion is important in the synthesis of various organic compounds and pharmaceuticals.

Preparation

The reaction of dimethylamine with phosgene in the presence of e. g. 50 % sodium hydroxide solution and subsequent extraction with 1,2-dichloroethane yields tetramethylurea in 95% yield.

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by ingestion and intravenous routes. An experimental teratogen. Experimental reproductive effects. Human mutation data reported. Combustible when exposed to heat, flame, and oxidizers. To fight fire, use foam, mist, spray, dry chemicals. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.

Purification Methods

Dry it over BaO and distil it under nitrogen. It denatures proteins in H2O. [Elbaum & Herskovits Biochemistry 13 1268 1974, Kane Anal Biochem 53 350 1973, Beilstein 4 IV 225.]

A rhodium peroxido complex in Mono-, Di-, and peroxygenation reactions

A versatile peroxido complex: The rhodium peroxido complex 1, which can be prepared from 2 and dioxygen, participates in mono-oxygenation of a phosphine and dioxygenation of tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene to give, respectively, phosphine oxide and a urea derivative, while peroxygenation of 9,10-dimethylanthracene to yield the anthracene endoperoxide takes place in the presence of dioxygen and substoichiometric amounts of 1 (see scheme).

On the exchange reaction,, using hexafluoroacetone

The reaction of λ3-phospha-diazetidin-thione, 1 with hexafluoroacetone (HFA) furnished not only the expected addition product, the λ5P-perfluoropinacolyl phosphorane, 2. In addition, HFA was observed to cause {A figure is presented} exchange in 2, and exclusive formation of a urea derivative, 3, was noted upon prolonged interaction of HFA with 2. Likewise, N,N,N′,N′,-tetramethylthiourea, 1, was found to be converted to N,N,N′,N′-tetrarmethylurea, 5, by HFA. The reactions were followed by 1H-, 13C-, 19F- and 31P-n.m.r. spectroscopy.

Copper(II) chloride-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation of glycerol to glycerol carbonate

A systematic study on copper(II) as catalyst for the synthesis of glycerol carbonate via oxidative carbonylation is here reported for the first time. Copper(II) chloride has been found to efficiently promote the process under homogeneous conditions treating glycerol with CO:O2 (Ptot = 4 MPa; P(O2) = 0.7 MPa), in DMA at 130 C and in the presence of pyridine as co-catalyst. Excellent conversions (>92%) and selectivities (>93%) are obtained in relatively short reaction times (3-4 h) also with copper(II) complexes. The catalyst overall TON is evaluated and new experimental evidences are provided allowing significant advancements in the mechanism comprehension.

Tetramethylurea and preparation method thereof

The invention provides tetramethylurea and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps that S1, dimethylamine and triphosgene are provided; S2, the dimethylamineand the triphosgene react to generate the tetramethylurea. According to the preparation method of the tetramethylurea, the dimethylamine and the triphosgene are used as raw materials, the dimethylamine can be a dimethylamine water solution or dimethylamine gas, and the triphosgene can be triphosgene itself or an organic triphosgene solution. The preparation method is simple in operation, high inproduct yield, low in cost and suitable for industrial production.

Metal-free direct thiocarbamation of imidazopyridines with carbamoyl chloride and elemental sulfur

The combination of elemental sulfur and carbamoyl chloride was found to act as a carbamothioyl group surrogate for direct thiocarbamation of imidazopyridines in the absence of a metal catalyst.
