The classical procedures described above for the formation of ureas from carboxylic acids require two steps, preparation of the isocyanate followed by its aminolysis. In this work, arylcarboxylic and arylalkylcarboxylic acids have been transformed into symmetric ureas in a single step using DPPA or sodium azide as nitrogen source. The addition of water (method A) or the presence of solvent water (method B) was essential for the formation of symmetrical ureas from the corresponding carboxylic acids. The corresponding ureas have been obtained in good to excellent yields of 46 to 100%. This procedure was compatible with differ-ent substituents present in the starting carboxylic acid.","PeriodicalId":49451,"journal":{"name":"Synthesis-Stuttgart","volume":"68 6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76495965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In comparison, organozinc base complexes offer a milder approach to deprotonative C-H functionalisations, and compatibility with a wide range of functionalities which would be problematic when using the alternative organolithium or organomagnesium reagents has now been demonstrated.

We now report on the synthesis of α- and β-configured per-O-benzoylated mannopyranosyl fluorides and initially show that their reactivity towards photo-bromination is strongly dependent on the anomeric configuration. The stereochemical basis of the fluorine-directing effect is then validated by revealing the striking difference in stereoselectivity observed for the free radical reductions of the isolated 5-C-bromo sugars. This work importantly provides a synthetic route to a donor-functionalised derivative of L-gulose and reveals new insights into the behaviour of glycosyl radicals.","PeriodicalId":49451,"journal":{"name":"Synthesis-Stuttgart","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82424639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
