In this work, N-alkylated sulfamic acid derivatives are introduced as promising acidic organocatalysts with convenient acidity and easy synthesis. The new organocatalysts derived from different nitrogenated compounds (amines, chitosan, urea and thiourea) were applied in multicomponent reactions to synthesize several dihydropyrimidinones (DHPMs). All tested organocatalysts resulted in good DHPM yields, using classic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and long-chain 1,3-dicarbonyl derivatives, demonstrating catalytic efficiency. N-Alkylated sulfamic acid derived from benzylamine showed good results (ca. 80% yields). In addition, excellent results were obtained with organocatalysts based on sulfamic acid and thiourea (ca. 80-97% yields), demonstrating the catalytic efficiency of new derivatives of thiourea organosulfamic catalysts.
