Reaction of 2-phenyl-3,1-benzoxazin-4H-one 1 with thiocarbohydrazide in ref
luxing ethanol affords 2-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazido-4(3H)-quinazolinone 2.
However, thioxotetrazinoquinazoIine 3 is obtained in 79% isolated yield whe
n the reaction mixture is fused in an oil bath at 160 degrees C. Compound 3
is also obtained when compound 2 is heated in an oil bath at 170 degrees C
. On the other hand, compound 3 reacts with paraformaldehyde and secondary
amines to afford the corresponding quinazoline derivatives 4 and 5, The dia
zonium salt of 3-amino-2-phenyl-4(3H)-quinazolinone 5 reacts with some acti
ve methylene compounds (diethyl malonate, ethyl acetoacetate, malononitrile
and acetylacetone) to affords the quinazolinone derivatives 8-11 in good y
ields. Reactions of 8 with hydrazine hydrate and phenylhydrazine afford the
corresponding pyrazolonoquinazolinones 12 and 13, respectively. Reaction o
f 8 with urea furnishes pyrimidinoquinazolinone 14 in 79% isolated yield. H
owever, reaction of 11 with hydrazine hydrate gives pyrazoloquinazolinane 1
5 in 83% isolated yield.
