TL;DR: The bis(carbodiimides) 4, obtained from bis-aza-Wittig reactions of bis(iminophosphorane) 3 with 2 equiv of aromatic isocyanates, were reacted with secondary amine to give symmetrically substituted 2,7-diaminothieno-4,5(3H,6H)-dione 6 in the presence of a catalytic amount of EtO(-)Na(+).
Abstract: The bis(carbodiimides) 4, obtained from bis-aza-Wittig reactions of bis(iminophosphorane) 3 with 2 equiv of aromatic isocyanates, were reacted with secondary amine to give symmetrically substituted 2,7-diaminothieno[2,3-d:5,4-d']dipyrimidine-4,5(3H,6H)-dione 6 in the presence of a catalytic amount of EtO(-)Na(+). Reactions of 4 with phenols or ROH in the presence of a catalytic amount of potassium carbonate or RO(-)Na(+) gave symmetrically substituted 2,7-diaryl(alkyl)oxythieno[2,3-d:5,4-d']dipyrimidine-4,5(3H,6H)-diones 6 in satisfactory yields. However, iminophosphoranes 9 were obtained via reaction of bis(iminophosphorane) 3 with 1 equiv of aromatic isocyanate and subsequent reaction with an amine in the presence of a catalytic amount of EtO(-)Na(+). Further reaction of iminophosphoranes 9 with aromatic isocyanates and various nucleophile generated unsymmetrically substituted thieno[2,3-d:5,4-d']dipyrimidine-4,5(3H,6H)-diones 12 in good yields.

TL;DR: In this article, the aza-Wittig reaction of anhydride and the catalytic anhydric reaction of acid anoxide were both developed with high yields, which provided an efficient method to synthesize 4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-ones and 4-benzylidene-2-aryloxazol-5(4H)-ones.
Abstract: Compared to the aza-Wittig reaction of aldehydes, ketones, amides, and esters, the aza-Wittig reaction of acid anhydride was always overlooked, which should be an important part of Wittig reactions. Here, the aza-Wittig reaction of anhydride and catalytic aza-Wittig reaction of anhydride were both developed with high yields, which provides an efficient method to synthesize of 4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-ones and 4-benzylidene-2-aryloxazol-5(4H)-ones. The strategy of copper-catalyzed reduction of phosphine oxide was used and found effective for this transformation. Additionally, the one-pot catalytic aza-Wittig reaction of carboxylic acids was achieved. Furthermore, NMR experiments and Hammett plot recorded the process of catalytic aza-Wittig reaction of anhydride, which provides direct proof that the copper-catalyzed reduction of waste phosphine oxide is the key step in this transformation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of the drug methaqualone (IVb) and the natural product deoxyvasicinone (Xa) was used as the key step in the preparation of the alkaloid (S)-vasicine.
Abstract: Besides for the synthesis of the drug methaqualone (IVb) and the natural product deoxyvasicinone (Xa) the method is used as the key step in the preparation of the alkaloid (S)-vasicinone.

TL;DR: Carbodiimides 4, obtained from aza-Wittig reactions of iminophosphorane 3 with aryl isocyanates, reacted with secondary amines in the presence of a catalytic amount of sodium alkoxide to give 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles 7 in good yields.
Abstract: Carbodiimides 4, obtained from aza-Wittig reactions of iminophosphorane 3 with aryl isocyanates, reacted with secondary amines in the presence of a catalytic amount of sodium alkoxide to give 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles 7 in good yields. However, 4-acylimidazoles 11 were obtained, as phenols were used in the presence of a catalytic amount of potassium carbonate due to further air oxidation of the expected products 10.
