title: Synthesis of substituted hydantoins in low melting mixtures.
abstract: A novel domino synthesis of 1,3,5-trisubstituted hydantoin derivatives has been developed in low melting L-(+)-tartaric acid-DMU melt mixtures. The functionalized hydantoins are obtained in good yields from β,γ-unsaturated ketoacids and urea under environmentally benign and simple reaction conditions.
