extra proton to II to afford the quinazoline thione C2. On the other hand the free cyclohexylamine will add to cyclohexyl isothiocyanate (4) to form the thiourea 3. Similar results were obtained by Furumoto [40], and Sun [41] reported the application of cyanuric chloride (2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine

nucleoside analogs were also prepared by these methods [101][102].
Sharma et al. used 2,4,6-trichloro[1,3,5]triazine (TCT) as the source of hydrogen chloride to promote the reactions leading to C-4-substituted C-nucleosides 81 with the high (ca. 7:1) diastereoisomeric ratio (Scheme 30) [103]. The products

additional deprotection step has to be introduced. Instead, a mild and efficient catalyst that can effectively produce iminium species in situ could generate the compound of interest without adding any extra steps. We envisaged that the use of cyanuric chloride (2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, TCT) [38][39

Results and Discussion
Previously, Furumoto reported the application of cyanuric chloride (2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, TCT) as a desulfurylation reagent in the synthesis of carbodiimides from thioureas under mild conditions [60]. In that reaction

, when amides react with electrophile-activated DMSO, the yields are rather low. We have found new electrophiles, 2,4,6-trichloro[1,3,5]triazine (CC) and 2,4-dichloro-6-methoxy[1,3,5]triazine (DCMT), which activate DMSO in the presence of amides to yield methylenebisamides in good to fair yields. The
amides can be aromatic or aliphatic. The operation is simple and the reagents are inexpensive.

Sulfoxides are activated by electrophiles to produce reactive sulfonium salts. These electrophiles
on the chlorination [10] and etherification [11] of benzyl alcohols and from other references [12][13][14], we believe the reaction between 2,4,6-trichloro[1,3,5]triazine (cyanogen chloride, or CC) and DMSO produces a reactive sulfonium salt intermediate. Therefore, it was of interest to study the
