A Transition Metal‐Free One‐Pot Synthesis of Imidazolones: A Combined Experimental and Computational Study

ABSTRACT Imidazolones serve as a crucial framework for a range of applications, spanning from medicine, natural products, agriculture, and beyond. Despite showing significant promise in diverse areas, their preparatory methods are not widely developed. Herein, we report a simple one‐pot transition metal‐free approach for the synthesis of substituted imidazolones. The protocol encompasses a broad substrate scope with good yields. To gain insight into the present protocol, various control experiments and extensive computational calculations were performed.
