Abstract

Abstract A short and facile synthesis of a series of quinazolines and imidazo [1, 2-c] quinazolines was accomplished in good yields via the novel reductive cyclization of 2- nitrobenzyl amines or 2-(2-nitrophenyl) imidazoles with ortho-ester, aldehydes or ketones promoted by TiCl 4/Zn system. The structures were established by spectroscopic data and confirmed by X-ray analysis.
