Reaction Steps

4-Chloro-7-fluoro-6-nitroquinazoline (7) can be prepared by methods similar to those described in J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 918-928. Generally, 2-amino-4-fluoro-benzoic acid (1) can be reacted with formamidine (2) and acetic acid (3) in the presence of 2-methoxyethanol to provide 7-Fluoro-3H-quinazolin-4-one (4). The 7-fluoro-3H-quinazolin-4-one (4) can then be nitrated to 7-fluoro-6-nitro-3H-quinazolin-4-one (5), which can be treated with thionyl chloride to yield 4-chloro-6-nitro-7-fluoro-3H-quinazoline (6). The 4-chloro-quinazoline compound (6) can be combined with a desirably substituted aniline, represented above by 4-fluoro-3-chloro-aniline, in the presence of a tertiary amine and isopropanol to provide the 4-anilino-6-nitro-7-fluoro-quinazoline (7).
