A practical two-step synthesis of N,N′-disubstituted cyanamides consists in the low-temperature metalation of N-substituted 5H-tetrazoles that undergo spontaneous cycloreversion at 0 °C releasing dinitrogen, and forming N-metalated cyanamides that can be reacted in situ with a variety of electrophiles. Remarkably, the N-substituted Li and K cyanamides are air stable white solids at room temperature. Addition of lithium organometallics to the N,N′-disubstituted cyanamides provides a new method for accessing N,N′-disubstituted amidines.

A convenient procedure for preparing N-mono- and NN-di-substituted cyanamides from cyanogen bromide has been developed.N,N-Disubstituted thioureas, obtained from the cyanamides, were condensed with α-bromo-α-cyanoketones to give 5-cyano-2-(N,N-disubstituted amino)thiazoles and with α-bromo-ketones to give 2-(N,N-disubstituted amino)thiazoles.Substitution in the latter products afforded 5-trifluoroacetyl- and 5-nitro-2-(N,N-disubstituted amino)thiazoles; nitration is greatly facilitated by the presence of a 4-aryl group.The average values of the barriers of rotation of the barriers to rotation of the 2-NR2 groups (ΔG298) in the 5-substituted thiazoles were established by variable temperature 1H n.m.r. spectrometry to be 57.4 kJ mol -1 (5-NO2), 56.2 (5-COCF3), and 51.5 (5-CN).I.r. examination showed that the 5-trifluoroacetyl compounds adopt one rotational form preferentially; this is probably the carbonyl O,S-syn-conformation.
