The synthesis and physicochemical properties of new carbonyl derivatives of 1-aryl-2-iminoimidazolidine are presented. Isomeric 1-(1-arylimidazolidine-2-ylidene)-3-arylureas (series A) and 1-aryl-2-imine-3-arylaminocarbonylimidazolidines (series B) were obtained after the condensation reaction of 1-aryl-2-iminoimidazolidines and arylisocyanates. 1-Aryl-2-iminoimidazolidines were synthesised in a two-step reaction from the

Benzalkonium chloride, diazolidinyl urea, and imidazolidinyl urea are commonly used preservatives in cosmetics. Recent reports suggested that these compounds may have cellular and systemic toxicity in high concentration. In addition, diazolidinyl urea and imidazolidinyl urea are known formaldehyde (FA) releasers
