Procedure

In this scheme 5-hydroxy-2-nitrobenzaldehyde 1 is reacted in DMF with iodomethane and potassium carbonate to yield 5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzaldehyde 2. The methoxybenzaldehyde is heated with p-toluene sulfonic acid monohydrate (catalytic amount) in toluene to obtain the dioxane derivative 3, which is hydrogenated to give 2-(1,3-dioxolan-2yl)-4-methoxyphenylamine 4. Following conversion to the ethoxycarboxamide 5 and then to the formyl carboxamide 6,6-methoxyquinazolin-2-ol 7 is obtained by ring closure with ammonia. Reaction with phosphorus oxychloride then yields the desired 2-chloro-6-methoxyquinazoline intermediate 8.
