Procedure

A solution of benzyl alcohol (5.27 g, 48.7 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (12 mL) was cooled to 0° C. prior to the portion-wise addition of sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 1.95 g, 48.7 mmol). This mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 30 minutes before being cooled to 0° C. followed by the addition of a solution of the product from Step 1 (2.0 g, 12 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (12 mL). After the addition, the reaction was warmed to 95° C. for 16 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction was partitioned between EtOAc and H2O. The layers were separated and the precipitated solids in the organic layer were collected by filtration, washed with EtOAc and air dried. A second crop of solids was collected and the filtrate washed with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to provide a third crop of solids. Combination of the solids and drying to constant weight afforded 2.82 g (93%) of 7-(benzyloxy)quinazolin-4(3H)-one as a tan solid. MS 253.3 (ES+).
