Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Diarylureas via Pd-Catalyzed C-N Cross-Coupling Reactions

A facile synthesis of unsymmetrical N,N'-diarylureas is described. The utilization of the Pd-catalyzed arylation of ureas enables the synthesis of an array of diarylureas in good to excellent yields from benzylurea via a one-pot arylation-deprotection protocol, followed by a second arylation.
