An efficient synthesis of 3-benzylquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives under catalyst-free and solvent-free conditions

摘要

An efficient and convenient method for the preparation of 3-benzylquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives under solvent-free and catalyst-free conditions by the reaction of isatoic anhydride, benzylamine, and aromatic aldehydes was reported. In reported papers, ammonia water, ammonium salt, and aromatic amine were often used to synthesize quinazolin-4(1H)-one derivative, but benzylamine was seldom used in this synthesis. This article offers a green method for the synthesis of 3-benzylquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivative used benzylamine as starting material. This methodology has the advantages of short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, easy work-up, and environmental friendliness.
