Organic-salt-mediated highly regioselective N3-alkylation of 2-thiophenytoin via Michael reaction under solvent-free conditions

A regioselective N3-alkylation of 5,5-diphenyl-2-thiohydantoin (2-thiophenytoin) using a very efficient mild base K2CO3 and α,β-unsaturated esters in the presence of organic salt TBAB (tetrabutylammonium bromide) at room temperature has been reported (3b–3h). The selectivity of this reaction is exce...
