Abstract
We have developed an efficient copper-catalyzed method for the
synthesis of 4-aminoquinazoline and 2,4-diaminoquinazoline derivatives
via reactions of substituted 2-bromo-benzonitriles with amidines
or guanidine, and the method is of economical and practical advantage.
Key words
copper - Ullmann-type reaction - cross-coupling - quinazoline - synthetic method

General Procedure
for the Synthesis of Compounds 3a-m
A
25 mL round-bottom flask was charged with a magnetic stirrer
and DMF (3 mL), substituted 2-bromobenzonitrile (1 , 1
mmol), amidine hydrochloride (2 , 1.2 mmol),
DMEDA (0.2 mmol, 18 mg), and K2 CO3 (2 mmol,
138 mg) [2 mmol (656 mg) of Cs2 CO3 were
used for acetamidine hydro-chloride] after stirring of
the mixture for 15 min under nitrogen atmosphere, and CuI (0.1 mmol,
19 mg) was added to the flask. The mixture was stirred at 80 ˚C
for the time indicated in Table
[² ]
.
The resulting mixture was cooled to r.t. and filtered. The solid
was washed with DMF (2 × 3 mL), and the
combined filtrate was concentrated by the rotary evaporator, and
the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel
using CHCl3 -MeOH (40:1 to 5:1) as eluent to
give the desired product.
