The Action of Amines on the Esters of Carboxy Substituted Ureas, Thioureas and Guanidines. I11 BY J. ALDENMURRAYAXD F. B. DAINS This is a continuation of the study of the action of amines on carbonyldiurethan and allophanic ester] together with their sulfur analogs and on the ethyl esters of guanidinecarboxylic acids. These latter can be regarded as derivatives of allophanic ester or carbonyldiurethan in which the carbonyl oxygen is replaced by S, CHBS,NH or “2. The experimental results have shown that with the sulfur derivatives the S or CHIS was the first point of attack, while with the guanidinecarboxylic esters, as in carbonyldiurethan, the carbethoxy groups were first affected. In some cases ring closure occurred to form heterocyclic compounds. Experimental 1. Urea Derivatives Methyl and Ethyl Amines and Allophanic Ester.-On long :standing the ester went into solution in the amines (33y0) and from the residues, on evaporation, were isolated 1-methylbiuret (m. p. 175”) and 1-ethylbiuret (ni. p. 159”) in 60% yields.* Benzylamine and Allophanic Ester.-7-Benzylallophanic ester3 (I), CeHsCH2NHCONHCOOC2H5, was the main product when the components were heated a t 135” for three hours. Heated a t 150” for five hours, 1,5-dibenzylbiuet (11), HK(CONHCH2C6HJ2, (m, p. 169”) resulted, while a t 200” the biuret dissociated to give cyanuric acid and s-dibenzylurea (m. p . 169’).4 Phenyl Isocyanate and Allophanic Ester.-The ester and isocyanate were heated a t 125” for five hours.5 The residue consisted of unchanged ester, carbanilide, and the addition product 1-phenyl-5-carbethoxybiuret ( m . p. 173 I) , 6 Phenylhydrazine and r-Phenylallophanic Ester.-This mixtiire, when heated a t 130” for five hours, gave aniline and i-phenylurazole (m. p . 263”).‘ (1) (a) Dains Greider, and Kidwell, THIS J O U R N A L , 41, 1004 1919): (bj Doins and XVertheim, ibid. 43, 2303 (1920).

Methyl and Ethyl Amines and Carbony1diurethan.-The diurethan dissolved immediately in an excess of 33% ethylamine solution, but in a few minutes a deposit of allophanic ester appeared.* On two weeks standing this dissolved and the solution was found to contain 1-ethylbiuret and traces of an oil, the ethyl ester of ethylcarbamic acid.g With methylamine, the diurethan gave, in thirty-six hours, 1-methylbiuret. Benzylamine and Carbony1diurethan.-In water solution on standing, and a t 115” without water, the reactants formed allophanic ester and ethyl benzylcarbamate (In.p . 49’),In results due to simple aminolysis. A t 135”, the products were ammonia, allophanic ester and ethyl ybenzylallophanate (I) ; a t 160 O , 1,5-dibenzylbiuret (11) ; and a t 200” s-dibenzylurea. Hydrazine and Carbonyldiurethan-On standing in alcoholic solution, allophanic ester alone. was isolated. Phenylhydrazine and Carbony1diurethan.-When molar quantities were heated a t 115 or 140”, 1-phenylurazole was the main product,‘ but a t 160’ iminodicarboxylic acid diphenylhydrazide ( 111), H N ( CONHNHC6Hb)z, was formed. It is soluble in sodium hydroxide. 2. Thiourea Derivatives Thioallophanic Ester, H2NCSNHCOOC2Hj.11--The cster was hydrolyzed to thiourea by aqueous ammonia and alkyl amines, and by alcoholic potassium hydroxide. Heated at 160” for an hour with aniline or o-toluidine, it yielded the s-diary1 oxygen ureas. Efforts to methylate the ester were fruitless. Amines and the Methyl Ether of Thiocarbonyldiurethan, CH3SC(NCOOCzHj)NHC00CzHj.’Z-The primary amines react with the methyl thioether in alcoholic solution with the loss of mercaptan and the formation of substituted guanidines. The yields were very satisfactory. Thus, methylamine gave y-methyl-p-dicarbethoxyguanidine (IV), CH~NHC(~’COOC~H~)NHCOOCZH;. Analogous results were obtained with ethylaniine (V), ethanolamine (VI), benzylamine (VII), aniline (T‘III), o-toluidine ( I X ) , phenylhydrazine (X), o-aminophenol (XI), p aminobenzoic acid ( X I I ) , anthranilic acid (XIII), and methyl anthranilate (XIV).
