Thermolysis reactions of N-alkyl-N′-CBZ amino acid amides. A route to substituted imidazolidine-2,4-diones

Abstract

Reaction of N-alkyl-N′-CBZ amino acid amides under microwave conditions in water and in the presence of an acid catalyst results in the formation of N-substituted imidazolidine-2,4-diones in good yields.
