Significance

Solid-phase synthesis of 2-imidazolidinethiones 6 was demonstrated. Thus, ArgoGel-CHO resin 1 was coupled with several amino alcohols to give resin-supported ethanolamines 2. Isothiocyanates 3 were attached to resin 2 to give the corresponding N-(2-hydroxyethyl)thioureas 4. The intramolecular cyclization of 4 under Mitsunobu conditions afforded the N-cyclized products 5. The resulting compounds 5 were converted via cleavage of polymer supports with TFA into 2-imidazolidinethiones 6.
