Procedure

A solution of sublimed phthalic anhydride in ethyl acetate is reacted with a solution of anthranilonitrile in ethyl acetate to form 2'-cyanophthalanilic acid. The 2'-cyanophthalanilic acid is then boiled with acetic anhydride to convert the acid to 2'-cyanophthalanil. The 2'-cyanophthalanil is thereafter boiled in a mixture containing 2% potassium hydroxide and 2.4% hydrogen peroxide, cooled and neutralized with hydrochloric acid to cyclicize it and form isoindolo [2,1-a]quinazoline-5,11-dione. A similar procedure is set forth by Bogert and Hand, 24 J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1031 (1902) for preparing 2-methyl-4-ketodihydroquinazoline from N-acetylanthranilonitrile.
