Conditions

Temperature: 120 °C

Procedure

Pyridine (20 ml) was added to a suspension of 7-hydroxy-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one (20.5 g, 107 mmol) in acetic anhydride (150 ml, 1.6 mol). The reaction mixture was heated to 120° C. for three hours, during which time the solid dissolved. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool then poured into ice-water (900 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for one hour then the solid was removed by filtration and dried over phosphorus pentoxide yielding 7-acetoxy-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one as a white solid (20.98 g, 84%).
