Reaction Steps

7-bromo-2-methyl-4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-one 7.25 (400 mg, 1.58 mmol) was taken up in 26% aqueous ammonium hydroxide (5 mL, 33.38 mmol) and heated in a sealed tube at 80° C. for 4 hours. Mixture was cooled to room temperature and solid was filtered, washing with water. Solid was dried in-vacuo to yield 7-bromo-2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-one 7.26 (213 mg), which was used in the next step without further purification.
