Synthesis of bicyclic 1,3,5-triazine-2,4(3H)-diones: Reaction of amidines with diphenyl iminodicarboxylate

Palladium-catalyzed construction of amidines from arylsilanes in the absence of a ligand under oxidative conditions

An interesting palladium-catalyzed procedure for the synthesis of amidines from arylsilanes, isocyanides and amines has been developed.

Palladium-Catalyzed Construction of Amidines from Arylboronic Acids under Oxidative Conditions

A valuable palladium-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction for the synthesis of amidines has been developed. Using arylboronic acids, isocyanides, and anilines as the reactants under oxidative conditions, various amidines were isolated in good yields with good functional group tolerances.

Novel and Efficient One-Pot Synthesis of Np-alkyl-N,N-dimethylacetamidines

An efficient method for the synthesis of Np-alkyl- N,N-dimethylacetamidine derivatives under mild conditions and in excellent yields involved reacting primary alkylamines with N,N-dimethylacetamide in the presence of LiCl as a catalyst and methanol as the acetalising reagent.
