We have redetermined the known structures of (i) methylthiourea (MTU) and (ii) 1,1-dimethylthiourea (1,1-DMTU), and investigated the structure of 1,3-dimethylthiourea (1,3-DMTU), which was however severely disordered. We report the structures of crystalline adducts of (iii) MTU with morpholine (1:1), (iv)

A Pauson-Khand type of conversion of enynes to bicyclic cyclopentenones employing the commercially available Co2(CO)8 and tetramethylthiourea (TMTU) as catalysts is described. This method allows a variety of enynes with diverse functional groups to be cyclized into cyclopentenones of interest.
