Abstract

Monothiohydantoin 3a is made in seven steps front 1,4-diiodobenzene and is shown to be an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (IC50) = 23.4 +/- 1.1 mu M). The key step in the sequence involves a microwave-assisted four- component reaction that makes the 5,5'-disubstituted hydantoin nucleus by the sequential formation of two C-C and two C-N bonds.

For example, comparable yields are achieved in the synthesis of 5-butyl-5- phenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione 1 (R = Ph, R1 = Bu) from PhCN and n-BuLi [THF, 0 �C, 30 min then KCN, (NH4)2CO3, aq EtOH] usingMWconditions (70 �C, 50 W, 1 h: 73%) or a sealed tube (75 �C, 24 h: 79% or 75 �C, 1 h: 75%). 15.

However, this does not fully account for the poor inhibition in comparison to predictions from molecular modelling (Ref. 12).
