Abstract

Carbodiimides are of considerable importance in synthesis both in the preparation of a variety of urea derivatives and heterocycles, and also as dehydrating agents to cause acylation, particularly in peptide synthesis.2 Previous preparations3 of carbodiimides include the elimination of hydrogen sulphide from thioureas, dehydration of ureas, pyrolysis of S-alkylisothioureas, and the catalytic conversion of isocyanates. The thermolysis of tetrazoles,4 oxathiadiazoles,5 and oxathiadiazole S-oxides6 also yields carbodiimides.
