Herein, we report an efficient protocol for the synthesis of spiro-imidazolidinone-cyclohexadienones from p-quinone methides (p-QMs) and dialkyloxy ureas under mild conditions. The strategy follows a two-step process involving an initial vinylogous conjugate addition of urea derivatives to p-QMs, followed by oxidative dearomative cyclization of open-chain product to the projected spiro-imidazolidinones. This protocol exhibits good functional group tolerance and provides a straightforward method to access spiro-imidazolidinone-cyclohexadienones. In follow-up chemistry, we have shown the debenzylation of spiroimidazolidinones to give N-hydroxycyclic ureas. (Figure presented.).
