An efficient three-step route for the synthesis of N-1 alkyl/aryl- substituted hydantoins was developed from inexpensive commercially available substrates. The reaction of amines with cyanogen bromide takes place to give monoalkyl/aryl cyanamides. This on treatment with methyl bromoacetate in the presence of sodium hydride in tetrahydrofuran affords methyl N-cyano-N-alkyl/arylaminoacetate, which undergoes hydrolysis and cyclization in the presence of 50% H2SO4 to afford N-1 substituted hydantoins in very good-to-excellent yields. Wide varieties of final products having primary, secondary, tertiary, and aryl substituents at the N-1 position were successfully synthesized by this method. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2008.

Two general procedures were developed for the synthesis of chiral N-mono-, N, N′-di-, N, N′ N″-tri-, and N, N′, N″, N′″-tetraalkylglycolurils based on the reactions of 4,5-dihydroxy-imidazolidin-2-ones or glyoxal with one or two moles of alkylureas, respectively, by acid catalysis. The reactions of N-monoalkyl- and N, N′-dialkylureas with glyoxal proceed regioselectively. The mechanism of these reactions was suggested and partly confirmed by quantum-chemical calculations and experimental data. The enantiomeric separation of some chiral glycolurils by chiral-phase HPLC was carried out for the first time.
