Quinazoline reaction with nucleophiles

The sensitivity of position 2 in 4-chloroquinazoline for nucleophilic addition was also demonstrated in the reaction with lithium piperidide (73RTC460). Whereas in the amination with potassium amide/liquid ammonia no open-chain intermediate could be isolated, with lithium piperi-dide/piperidine the open-chain compound ort/z6>-(piperidinomethy-leneamino)benzonitrile (78,60%) was obtained, in addition to 4-piperidino-quinazoline (80,19%) (Scheme 11.35). The formation of 80 from 78 involves... 

In the past year, reviews on 1,8-naphthyridines, perimidines, polyazaphen-anthrenes, 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes, and 1,2- and 2,1-benzothiazines have appeared. Reviews on specialist aspects of pyridine chemistry are devoted to the reactions of newly available pyridines, a,a -disubstituted pyridines, the reactions of pyridines with nucleophiles, the electrochemistry of IjT-disubstituted 4,4 -bipyridinium ions (the viologens such as paraquat), dihydropyridines, and 4-aryl-dihydropyridines (a new class of calcium antagonists). Reviews have been published on the cyclization of oximes and amides to quinolines and isoquinolines, quinoline- and isoquinoline-diones, benzo[fl ]- and benzo[c]-quinolizinium ions, azachrysene preparation, quinazolines with plant-growth-regulating and biocidal activities, quinazolines in pharmaceutical research, isotopic hydrogen exchange in...

The use of oximes as nucleophiles can be quite perplexing in view of the fact that nitrogen or oxygen may react. Alkylation of hydroxylamines can therefore be a very complex process which is largely dependent on the steric factors associated with the educts. Reproducible and predictable results are obtained in intramolecular reactions between oximes and electrophilic carbon atoms. Amides, halides, nitriles, and ketones have been used as electrophiles, and various heterocycles such as quinazoline N-oxide, benzodiayepines, and isoxazoles have been obtained in excellent yields under appropriate reaction conditions. 

In addition to having typical A -oxide reactions, quinazoline 3-oxide also shows the same reactivity as quinazoline toward nucleophilic reagents, but the reaction goes a step further by eliminating water as shown in reaction 2d. Oxidation with hydrogen peroxide... 

Heterocyclic structures analogous to the intermediate complex result from azinium derivatives and amines, hydroxide or alkoxides, or Grignard reagents from quinazoline and orgahometallics, cyanide, bisulfite, etc. from various heterocycles with amide ion, metal hydrides,or lithium alkyls from A-acylazinium compounds and cyanide ion (Reissert compounds) many other examples are known. Factors favorable to nucleophilic addition rather than substitution reactions have been discussed by Albert, who has studied examples of easy covalent hydration of heterocycles.
