We report a new electrochemical supporting-electrolyte-free method for synthesizing ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates via the oxidation of oxamic acids. This simple, practical, and phosgene-free route includes the generation of an isocyanate intermediate in situ via anodic decarboxylation of an oxamic acid in the presence of an organic base, followed by the one-pot addition of suitable nucleophiles to afford the corresponding ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates. This procedure is applicable to different amines, alcohols, and thiols. Furthermore, when single-pass continuous electrochemical flow conditions were used and this reaction was run in a carbon graphite Cgr/Cgr flow cell, urea compounds could be obtained in high yields within a residence time of 6 min, unlocking access to substrates that were inaccessible under batch conditions while being easily scalable.

A simple synthetic procedure for the conversion of amines and hydrazines into substituted semicarbazides was developed. The initial condensation between the desired amine and phenyl chloroformate into phenyl carbamate is followed by the addition of hydrazine under basic conditions. The reaction is tolerable to a variety of functional groups, with mild conditions and high percent yields.

Several novel semicarbazones derivatives were prepared from 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde or 5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde, and tested in vitro as potential anti-trypanosomal agents. The compounds were prepared in good to excellent yields in 2-3 steps from readily available starting materials. Some derivatives were found to be active against Trypanosoma cruzi with an activity similar to that of Nifurtimox.
