Abstract

ABSTRACTCuI–Zn(OAc)2 catalyzed a new, fast, solvent‐free strategy for the synthesis of quinazolin‐4(3H)‐ones via selective scission of CC bond of the 1,3‐diketone (both cyclic and acyclic) and β‐ketoester was achieved under microwave irradiation. In contrast to the frequently applied synthetic strategy that involves cyclization‐oxidation sequence of anthranilamides (2‐aminobenzamides) with various aldehydes or benzyl alcohols, here, anthranilamide reacts with β‐ketoester/1,3‐diketo compounds in presence of CuI‐Zn(OAc)2 catalyst to form quinazolin‐4(3H)‐ones scaffold through an uncommon CC bond cleavage under solvent‐free mild conditions with excellent yields. Besides, this method displays its capacity for gram‐scale reactions.
