Procedure

This thionyl chloride (1,095 mL, 15 mmol) was added to 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)quinazoline-4 (3H)-one (2.0 g, 10.52 mmol) in a reactor, forming a white suspension that heated spontaneously to 85° C. The reaction medium was kept at this temperature under agitation for thirty minutes, after which it was left to cool to about 40° C. Next, 50 mL of water was added, forming a pinkish suspension, which was kept under agitation for two hours. The product was then vacuum filtered and washed with three portions of 10 mL of an ethanol/water mixture (50% v/v), yielding 3-(2-chloroethyl) quinazoline-4 (3H)-one as a pale white solid (1.8 g, 8.63 mmol, yield=82%).
