In the presence of trifluoracetic acid (TFAA), an efficient method for the synthesis of tetra(hexa)hydropyrimidinethione-carboxylates has been used on the basis of three-component condensation of thiourea with its different aldehydes and β-diketones. Some novel cyclic thioureas were synthesized, and their hCA I, hCA II, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors and metal-chelating properties were evaluated. K values of novel synthesized compounds for AChE and BChE are in the range of 51.84-135.96 and 143.96-274.55 nM, respectively. Also, HCA I and II were effectively inhibited by these novel compounds, with K values in the range of 404.16-745.13 nM for hCA I and of 434.20-689.57 nM for hCA II, respectively. Additionally, acetazolamide (AZA), clinically used as a CA inhibitor, with a K value of 883.68 ± 121.27 nM in hCA I and 1008.66 ± 144.70 nM in hCA II. Also, tacrine inhibited AChE and BChE showed K values of 314.63 ± 31.66 and 373.57 ± 75.07 nM, respectively.

Reactions of cyclic thioureas (1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-thione and 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-thione) and ureas (1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-one and 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one) with an isolable dialkylsilylene were examined. In these reactions, cyclic thioureas served as sulfur and NHC (N-heterocyclic carbene) sources, and the corresponding silanethione and NHC-derived products formed via silanethione-NHC complexes. Reactions of cyclic ureas with the silylene afforded a new NHC and an isolable azomethine ylide.

The present study reports some fascinating results of Hantzsch's [3 + 2] cyclic condensation of α-bromo-1,3-diketones, a tri-electrophilic synthon generated by bromination of 1,3-diketones using the mild brominating reagent NBS with trinucleophilic -substituted thioureas. Interestingly, out of a total of 20 combinations, 10 resulted in the exclusive formation of the desired 2-(-arylamino)-5-acyl-4-methylthiazoles regioselectively, seven led to the formation of unexpected 2-(-acylimino)-3--aryl-4-methylthiazoles through an interesting C-N acyl migration, and three furnished a mixture consisting of both products. The regioselectivity pattern of the two products may be attributed to a greater electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon of the acetyl group than that of the acyl group towards both nitrogens of thiourea.

This study has explored the sustainable solution after designing an economical metal-free biomass-derived nanocarbon for the selective sensing of lead. The nitrogen and sulfur-rich mesoporous nanocarbon is designed through a facile hydrothermal-assisted thermal annealing method. The high-temperature treatment gave nanocarbon unique carbon dot decorated layered morphology, while nitrogen and sulfur precursor thiourea and melamine strengthened the nanomaterial stability, sensitivity, and selectivity toward lead metal ions.

A visible-light-induced C(sp)-H functionalization of indoles by using Schreiner's thiourea as the organocatalyst has been reported. With the aid of a three-component domino reaction between 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes, cyclic-1,3-diketones, and a variety of indoles, the corresponding densely functionalized xanthene scaffolds were isolated in good to excellent yields. Apart from these, a broad range of other bioactive natural products including kojic acid, lawsone, and 4-hydroxycoumarin were also investigated instead of indoles for the present work.
