Description
1,1′-Thiocarbonyldiimidazole (TCDI) is thiourea containing two imidazole rings.
It is the sulfur-based analog of carbonyldiimidazole (CDI), a peptide coup (CDI).
can also be prepared via the reaction of thiophosgene with two equivalents of imidazole.
The imidazole groups on 1,1′-Thiocarbonyldiimidazole can be easily displaced
Similar to the CDI, which is an analog CDI it could be utilized for peptide coupling[1-3].
Applications
- This method has been employed in the Corey-Winter olefin synthesizer.
- It could also be used to substitute the carbonothioyl species (RC(S)Cl) in the deoxygenation process Barton-McCombie.
- Other uses include the production of thiocarbamates and thioamides.
- it could be utilized for peptide coupling[1-3].
