Propanoyl bromide, 2-bromo- → 6-(2-Bromopropionyl)-3,4-dihydro-3-methyl-2(1H)-quinazolinone

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-Bromopropionyl bromide (71.02 g) is added dropwise to a stirred mixture of 3,4-dihydro-3-methyl-2(1H)quinazolinone (26.75 g) and anhydrous aluminum chloride (54.98 g) in carbon disulfide (350 ml). The reaction mixture is stirred under reflux for 5 hrs., the carbon disulfide decanted, and the residue treated with HCl (6N). The resulting solid is filtered, and washed with water and dried in vacuo to obtain 6-(2-bromopropionyl)-3,4,dihydro-3-methyl-2(1H)-quinazolinone which is used in the next step.
