- Description: Synthesis of some thiourea derivatives have been achieved by using ultrasound, the compounds have been characterised using IR, NMR, GC-MS and elemental analysis. The single crystal X-ray structure of N-[(benzyloxy)methanethioyl]benzamide (IV), 1-benzoyl-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)thiourea (V) and 3-benzoyl-1-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)thiourea (VI) has been presented and the bond lengths and bond angles contrasted with computed results. The HOMO and LUMO energy levels as well as the global chemical reactivity descriptors of the compounds have also been computed and discussed. Two comformers were obtained for compounds IV to VI in the molecular Electrostatic potential and the vibrational frequency computations and these have been discussed.

- Description: The reaction of benzoyl isothiocyanate with L-serine, L-proline, D-methionine and L-alanine gave 2-[(benzoylcarbamothioyl)amino]-3-hydroxypropanoic acid (I), 1-(benzoylcarbamothioyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid (II), 2-[(benzoylcarbamothioyl)amino]-4-(methylsulfanyl)butanoic acid (III) and 2-[(benzoylcarbamothioyl)amino]propanoic acid (IV), respectively. The compounds have been characterized by IR, NMR, microanalyses and mass spectrometry. The crystal structures of all the compounds have also been discussed. Compound II showed rotamers in solution. DFT calculations of the frontier orbitals of the compounds have been carried out to ascertain the groups that contribute to the HOMO and LUMO, and to study their contribution to the reactivity of these compounds. The calculations indicated that the carboxylic acid group in these compounds is unreactive hence making the conversion to benzimidazoles via cyclization on the carboxylic acids impractical. This has been further confirmed by the reaction of compounds I–IV, respectively, with o-phenylene diamine which was unsuccessful but gave compound V.

- Description: A novel gold(I)-mediated intramolecular transamidation of thiourea derivatives to yield benzamides via dethiocyanation have been achieved by the reaction of 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(benzoyl)thiourea derivatives in the presence of gold(I) precursors. The compounds have been characterized using IR, NMR, GC-MS and microanalysis. The single crystal XRD of 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(3-bromobenzoyl)thiourea (5), 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(3-methoxybenzoyl)thiourea (6), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)benzamide (10), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-chlorobenzamide (11), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-4-nitrobenzamide (12), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-bromobenzamide (14) have been discussed. The novel transformation is thought to proceed by a gold(I)-mediated intramolecular transamidation reaction which releases thiocyanate to yield the benzamide. Density functional theory calculations have been used to support the proposed mechanism for this transformation.
