Unexpected copper-catalyzed cascade synthesis of quinazoline derivatives

The first example of a copper-catalyzed cascade reaction of (2-aminophenyl)methanols with aldehydes using the combination of cerium nitrate hexahydrate and ammonium chloride has been developed, leading to a wide range of 2-substituted quinazolines in moderate to excellent yields. The efficiency of this transformation was demonstrated by compatibility with a wide range of functional groups. Thus, the method represents a convenient and practical strategy for synthesis of 2-substituted quinazoline derivatives.

CuCl/DABCO/4-HO-TEMPO-catalyzed aerobic oxidative synthesis of 2-substituted quinazolines and 4 H -3,1-benzoxazines

The Cu/N-ligand/TEMPO catalytic system was first applied to the aerobic oxidative synthesis of heterocycles. As demonstrated, 2-substituted quinazolines and 4H-3,1-benzoxazines were synthesized efficiently from the one-pot reaction of aldehydes with 2-aminobenzylamines and 2-aminobenzyl alcohols, respectively, by employing CuCl/DABCO/4-HO-TEMPO as the catalysts and oxygen as the terminal oxidant.

Synthesis of 3h-quinazolin-4-ones and 4h-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones via benzylic oxidation and oxidative dehydrogenation using potassium iodide-tert-butyl hydroperoxide

A simple and elegant method for benzylic activation was demonstrated employing the potassium iodide/tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide catalytic system. This methodology was further extended for the synthesis of biologically important heterocycles namely, 3H-quinazolin-4-ones and 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones including mecloqualone and etaqualone which are important quinazolinone-based drugs used for the treatment of insomnia in good yields.

Highly efficient one-pot synthesis of 2-substituted quinazolines and 4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines via cross dehydrogenative coupling using sodium hypochlorite

This communication describes a catalyst-free synthesis of 2-substituted quinazolines and 4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines using commericially available sodium hypochlorite as oxidant. Operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions and the ability to construct structurally diverse 2-quinazolines and 2-substituted 4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines by this method render it to be a practical alternative for the synthesis of these heterocycles.

Kinetics and mechanism of the addition of water and ring-opening of 2-methyl- and 2-aryl-4H-3,1-benzoxazines to 2-aminobenzyl esters in the acidic pH range; change in rate-limiting step with buffer concentration and evidence for a tetrahedral carbonyl addition intermediate

The observed rate coefficients for the reaction of 2-methyl-, 2-phenyl- and 2-(4-nitrophenyl)-4H-3,1-benzoxazines to give the corresponding 2-aminobenzyl esters increase as the pH is lowered and reach a constant plateau value at pH 2-4 depending on the substituent. The plateau region corresponds to complete conversion of the benzoxazine to the protonated benzoxazine (SH+) which is the reactive species. Values of pKSH+ calculated by fitting the appropriate rate expression to the rate-pH profile and the pKSH+ values measured spectrophotometrically before significant reaction to the ester has taken place are in good agreement. For each benzoxazine the observed rate coefficients show a rectilinear dependence on buffer concentration. A mechanism is proposed involving addition of water to the protonated benzoxazine to give a cyclic tetrahedral carbonyl addition intermediate. At low buffer concentrations, buffer catalysed collapse of the intermediate to product is rate-limiting and the reaction is first order in buffer. At high buffer concentrations, collapse of the intermediate to product is rapid and addition of water to the protonated benzoxazine to give the intermediate is rate-limiting.
