Procedure

2-Amino-4-fluorobenzoic acid (15 g, 96 mmol) was dissolved in 2-methoxyethanol (97 ml). Formamidine acetate (20.13 g, 193.4 mmol) was added and the mixture heated to reflux for 18 hours. The reaction was cooled, concentrated and the residue stirred in aqueous ammonium hydroxide (0.01 N, 250 ml) for 1 hour. The suspension was filtered, washed with water and dried over phosphorus pentoxide to yield 7-fluoroquinazolin-4(3H)-one as an off-white solid (10.35 g, 65% yield):
