The formation of N-acylureas from N-phosphorylated ureas under very mild conditions is presented as a possible route to the formation of carboxybiotin from biotin in biotin-mediated enzymatic carboxylations in which an N-phosphobiotin is the activated form.The detailed mechanistic pathway for the model reaction indicates that an intermediate acylphosphate is formed, the rate-determining step being a nucleophilic attack of the ureido anion or its enol on this acylphosphate.In no case was an O-phosphorylated intermediate (of the phosphobiotin type) involved.

The reactivity of models of enzymatic carboxylation reactions mediated by biotin coenzyme is presented; a possible role of the requiered ATP molecule for these reactions was investigated.Several models of biotin activated through phosphorylation - according to the O-phosphobiotin model - are described and their reactivity towards carboxylating agents discussed.Models also exhibit phosphoryl transfer propeties which may mimic known ATP synthesis from ADP, catalyzed by biotin carboxylases.Possible involvement of the same O-phosphobiotin structure is considered.
