Abstract

The reaction of aromatic amines with maleic acid or its diethyl ester with subsequent hydrolysis gave N-arylaspartic acids, which were converted to 1-aryl- and 1-aryl-2-thio-5-carboxymethylhydantoins by the action of urea, cyanates, or thiocyanates in an acidic medium. Esterification of the acid products with methanol gave the corresponding carbomethoxymethylhydantoins, which were converted by reduction to tetrahydroimidazole derivatives and by acetylation to acetyl derivatives. Alkylation of the carboxymethylhydantoins with dimethyl sulfate gave 3-methyl derivatives of hydantoins, while alkylation with formaldehyde gave 3-hydroxymethyl derivatives of hydantoins. Data from the x-ray diffraction analysis of 1-phenyl-2-thio-5-carbomethoxymethylhydantoin are presented.
