Abstract

A mild and highly practical regioselective synthesis of imidazole and 2,3-dihydroquinazolinone derivatives from 5-alkyl-4-hydroxyisophthalaldehydes with suitable substrates in acetic acid is reported. Further exploration of the molecular diversity of 2,3-dihydroquinazolinone is demonstrated by the synthesis of diverse pharmacologically relevant natural-product-like scaffolds.
