Abstract

The synthesis of new chiral thioureas 3a-f by using the ecofriendly solvent-free and microwave-assisted approaches is reported and, unexpectedly, in the former method by just mixing the starting materials the products are instantaneously obtained. The crystal structures for 3b, 3c and 3e are also reported.
