Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3.65 g (0.01 mole) of 1-(2-benzoyl-4-chlorophenyl)-1-methyl-3-phenylurea and 2.09 g (0.03 mole) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 50 ml of ethanol was stirred and refluxed for 5 days. The reaction mixture was cooled, and the suspended solid was collected on a filter, washed with alcohol, and dried in air to give 1.80 g (63%) of 6-chloro-1-methyl-4-phenyl-2-(1H)-quinazolinone as yellow crystals, mp 289°-291°.
