A fast and simple divergent synthesis of multisubstituted quinazolines and benzimidazoles was developed from readily available amidines, via iodine(III)-promoted oxidative C(sp3)-C(sp2) and C(sp 2)-N bond formation in nonpolar and polar solvents, respectively. Further selective synthesis of quinazolines in polar solvent was realized by TEMPO-catalyzed sp3C-H/sp2C-H direct coupling of the amidine with K2S2O8 as the oxidant. No metal, base, or other additives were needed.
