Abstract
Condensation of 2-mercapto-3H-quinazolin-4-one (1) with chloroacetic acid gave 4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2-yl-sulfanyl)-acetic acid (2) that with anthranilamide (3) gave 2-(4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-ylsulfanylmethyl)-3H-quinazolin-4-one (4). Oxidation of 4 with sodium hypochlorite in alkaline medium gave the novel product, 2-(4-oxo-3,4- dihydroquinazolin-2-ylsulfinyl methyl)-3H -quinazolin-4-one) (5). The entire sequences of reactions in this work have been carried out using eco-friendly solvents and green conditions.
