Abstract
New Pincer type Pd(II) complex [Pd(NNO)(PPh3)] (1) prompted synthesis of quinazolinones via dehydrogenative coupling of readily accessible alcohols, and o-aminobenzamide is described. A diverse range of quinazolinones has been synthesized efficiently with good to excellent yields employing low catalyst loading (0.5 mol%) under the aerobic condition without any additives/oxidants. A plausible mechanism for the construction of quinazolinones has been proposed via cyclic aminal intermediate. Large-scale synthesis attests to the productiveness of the current strategy.
