Abstract

We present a condensation of primary aryl or alkyl amines with S-methyl thiouronium salts to obtain N,N,N′-trisubstituted amidines. High yields, short reaction times, and a fair substrate scope are the noteworthy features of this protocol. Surprisingly, the reaction of a thiouronium salt with 4-aminopyridine gave 1-(4-methoxybenzoyl)piperidine.
