Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-aminoquinazoline (7.27 g) and dimethyl methoxymethylenepropanedioate (9.6 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (35 ml) was stirred for 2 hours at 150° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and poured into ice-water to give crystals, which were separated by filtration, washed with water and dried to ambient temperature to give a mixture (13.3 g) of dimethyl [(4-quinazolinylamino)methylene]propanedioate and methyl 4-oxo-4H-pyrimido[1,2-c]quinazoline-3-carboxylate.
