Acetic Anhydride → 4-(4-Chloro-3-formamidobenzyl)amino-6-chloroquinazoline

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.90 g (2.82 mmol) of the 4-(3-amino-4-chlorobenzyl)amino-6-chloroquinazoline prepared in Example 151 was dissolved in 15 ml of formic acid, followed by the addition of 1 ml of acetic anhydride. The obtained mixture was stirred at room temperature for several hours and distilled under a reduced pressure to remove the solvent. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate) and recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give 0.64 g of the title compound as a pale yellow crystal.
