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].
