Reaction Steps

Reflux a solution of 7-(2-Trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-3H-quinazolin-4-one (1.12 g, 0.0039 mol) in POCl3 for 16 hours. Cool the mixture and concentrate under reduced pressure. Partition the residue between saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and EtOAc. Wash the EtOAc layer once with additional NaHCO3, dry it (Na2SO4), and concentrate under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product as a solid. Filter the residue through a 2 inch pad of silica gel (50% EtOAc/Hexanes) and concentrate under reduce pressure to give 4-chloro-7-(2-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-quinazoline as a pale yellow-brown solid.
