Abstract:
A scalable synthetic strategy to produce a large variety of unsymmetrical trisubstituted 1,3,5-triazines was developed. This protocol applied in situ formed acyl isocyanate from amide to react with amidine, introducing two substituents to the 1,3,5-triazinone ring with a low production cost and a simple workup procedure. The scalability of this method was demonstrated by translating a small-scale procedure to a multi-kilogram-scale synthesis. Chlorination and a further coupling reaction with various nucleophiles could provide unsymmetrical trisubstituted 1,3,5-triazines bearing diverse functional groups.

Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
