Abstract

We demonstrate the first application of mechanochemistry to conduct the synthesis of sulfonyl-(thio)ureas, including known anti-diabetic drugs tolbutamide, chlorpropamide and glibenclamide, in good to excellent isolated yields by either stoichiometric base-assisted or copper-catalysed coupling of sulfonamides and iso(thio)cyanates.
