4-Aroylquinazolines (3) were prepared in good yields by alkaline hydrolysis of α-aryl-4-quinazolinylmethyl benzoates (15), followed by oxidation.The reaction of 3 with sodium hydroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) was found to proceed in two ways.One path is the aryl migration to lead to 4-aryl-3,4-dihydro-4-quinazolinecarboxylic acids (4), and the other is the fission of the C4-CO bond to yield quinazoline (5) and aroic acids (6). Potassium ferricyanide oxidized the carboxylic acids 4 to the corresponding 4-arylquinazolines (14) with elimination of carbon dioxide. Reaction of 4-benzoylquinazoline (3a) with methylmagnesium iodide did not result in the migration, but instead yielded of α-methyl-α-phenyl-4-quinazolinemethanol (18) and 3,4-dihydro-α,4-dimethyl-α-phenyl-4-quinazolinemethanol (19).
