Abstract

An efficient synthesis of 4-alkyl-2 (1H)-quinazolinones has been achieved by cyclization of 1- (2-alkynylphenyl) ureas (2 R2= alkyl) in dichloroethane catalyzed by TfOH. In the case of aryl substitution (2 R2= aryl), a mixture of quinazolinone tautomers is obtained in dichloroethane with TFA as co-solvent. Chlorination of the resulting mixture affords 4-alkyl-2- chloro-quinazolines as sole products.
