Abstract:
Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have emerged as powerful tools in organic chemistry, enabling the rapid and efficient assembly of complex molecular architectures. Urea-based multicomponent reactions have gained significant attention due to their versatility and broad applicability. In this review, we highlight recent developments in this area, with a focus on dihydropyrimidinones, and provide an in-depth analysis of the diverse synthetic pathways and applications of urea-based MCRs, shedding light on their fundamental mechanisms, reaction conditions, and potential for green and sustainable synthesis.

Strong bases like NaOH or KOH deprotonate the phthalimide to form the corresponding anion, which acts as a nucleophile. Further, the anion attacks an...
Preparation of 1° Amines: Azide Synthesis
Azide ions act as good nucleophiles and react with unhindered alkyl halides to form alkyl azides. Alkyl azides do not participate in further nucleophilic substitution reactions, thereby eliminating the chances of polyalkylated products. Alkyl azides are reduced by hydride-based reducing agents, like lithium aluminum...
