Facile and Efficient Oxidation of Quinazolines into Quinazolin-4(3H)-ones by Peracetic Acid
摘要:
A new approach to synthesize quinazoline-4(3H)-ones was achieved by oxidation of quinazolines using peracetic acid, which possesses some advantages of economic reagents, simplified operation, high efficiency, and environmental friendliness. Application of this method allowed us to synthesize a series of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with different substituents at 6 and 7 positions in good to excellent yields, including the key intermediates of tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as PD153035, Erlotinib, and Gefitinib.

A novel strategy to prepare 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives based on the oxidation of the quinazoline ring is described. Quinazoline oxidation has been investigated and improved, thus leading to an efficient and high yielding method to quinazolin-4(3H)-ones. Efficiency of this approach has been evaluated synthesizing four well known tyrosine kinase inhibitors and comparing the obtained yields with those achievable through conventional synthetic methods.
