It was found that the addition of diethylaluminum chloride accelerated the cleavage reaction rate. The amide yield depended on the steric hindrance of the amine.展开更多
Diastereoselective conjugate addition of 1-enoyl-5-substituted hydantoins with allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of Ti(IV) chloride proceeded to give the corresponding allyl adducts in high yield and high diastereo...Diastereoselective conjugate addition of 1-enoyl-5-substituted hydantoins with allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of Ti(IV) chloride proceeded to give the corresponding allyl adducts in high yield and high diastereoselectivity. In order to determine the absolute configuration on the β-position of the acyl group, the hydantoin was removed by hydrolysis of the allyl adducts with a base to give the corresponding carboxylic acid. It was found that the absolute configuration was S on the basis of specific rotation.展开更多
The reduction of various hydantoins with sodium borohydride gave the corresponding 4-hydroxy- 2-imidazolidinones in high yields. In contrast, reduction employing a boron trifluoride etherate-sodium borohydride system ...The reduction of various hydantoins with sodium borohydride gave the corresponding 4-hydroxy- 2-imidazolidinones in high yields. In contrast, reduction employing a boron trifluoride etherate-sodium borohydride system generated 2-imidazolidinones. In both reductions, the reactivity of the hydantoin was dependent on its substituents. The Lewis acid-promoted reactions of a 4-hydroxy-2-imidazolidinone with nucleophiles were also investigated.展开更多
