The benzoylation of 3,4-dihydro-4-quinazolinecarbonitrile (3) with benzoyl chloride in pyridine gave quinazoline Reissert compound (1, 3-benzoyl-3,4-dihydro-4-quinazolinecarbonitrile) in 82percent yield. The alkaline hydrolysis of 1 in methanol resulted in the formation of quinazoline (2) and benzoic acid (4).Acid hydrolysis gave 2-benzamido-2-(2-aminophenyl)acetonitrile (6), 4, and 2.The HCl salt of 1 existed predominantly in the cyclic amidinium structure of the type 8.Compound 1reacted with sodium hydride in dimethylformamide to yield 4-quinazolinecarbonitrile (9), α-phenyl-4-quinazolinylmethyl benzoate (10) and O-benzoylbenzoin (11). In the present paper we compare the chemical properties of 1 with those of isoquinoline Reissert compound (13, 2-benzoyl-1,2-dihydro-1-isoquinolinecarbonitrile). Keywords --- quinazoline Reissert compound; cyclic amidinium cation; alkaline hydrolysis; acid hydrolysis; quinazoline Reissert compound anion; acetonitrile derivative; 4-quinazolinecarbonitrile; 4-quinazolinylmethyl benzoate derivative
