E. Bencteux et al., A SHORT AND UNEQUIVOCAL SYNTHESIS OF 5-AMINOTETRAZOLO[1,5-A]QUINAZOLINE AS A TRICYCLIC ANALOG OF 4-(3-BROMOANILINO)6,7-DIMETHOXYQUINAZOLINE(PD-153035), Journal of heterocyclic chemistry, 34(4), 1997, pp. 1375-1378
The discovery of 4-(3-bromoanilino)-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline (PD 15303
5) as an extremely potent inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase activity of
the epidermal growth factor receptor led to the preparation of severa
l fused tricyclic quinazoline analogues. The present paper reports a n
ew tricyclic derivative: anilino)-7,8-dimethoxytetrazolo[1,5-a]quinazo
line. This compound was synthesized by two different pathways via a 1,
3-dipolar cycloaddition of an azide at carbon 2 of the quinazoline rin
