Furan-2-carbaldehydes as C1 building blocks for the synthesis of quinazolin-4(3<i>H</i>)-ones <i>via</i> ligand-free photocatalytic C–C bond cleavage

Abstract

Simple and inexpensive: The biomass-derived chemicals furan-2-carbaldehydes are efficient green C1 building blocks for the synthesis of biologically interesting quinazolin-4(3<italic>H</italic>)-ones <italic>via</italic> ligand-free photocatalytic C–C bond cleavage.
