Microwave-Assisted Facile One-Step Carbamoylation of 6-Aminouracils

Abstract

Carbamoylation of 6-aminouracils was achieved by reacting 6-aminouracils with isocyanates under computer-controlled microwave irradiation for a short reaction time. Under known thermal conditions, most of carbamoylated uracils are obtained in poor yields with long reaction times.

microwave - 6-aminouracil - isocyanates - heterocycles - carbamoylation
