Abstract
An efficient approach has been developed for the construction of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones by the selective anodic dehydrogenative oxidation/cyclization of benzylic chlorides and 2-aminobenzamides. The method features acceptor-free and metal-free dehydrogenation of amines to imines; a subsequent intermolecular addition provides the products in moderate to good yields.

Quinazolinones 3a–q; General Procedure
A mixture of the appropriate 2-aminobenzamide 1 (0.5 mmol), benzylic chloride 2 (0.6 mmol), and Bu4NBF4 (10 mol%) was placed in a 25 mL three-necked round-bottomed flask equipped with a condenser, an RVC (100 PPI) anode, and a Pt plate (1 × 1 cm) cathode. The flask was opened to air and MeCN (6 mL) was added. Electrolysis was carried out at 80 °C (oil-bath temperature) at a constant current of 10 mA until the substrate was completely consumed (TLC). The mixture was then cooled to rt, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc–PE).
