Irradiation with microwave leads to the excitation of molecules and equitable distribution of thermal energy in a much shorter time than conventional synthesis. This results in shorter reaction time and, more often than not, higher efficiency.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000The primary objective of the work presented in this article was to prepare hydrazine hydrate or thiourea derivative of quinazolines through microwave synthesis as small-molecule scaffolds for further need-based functionalisation, isolation, and characterisation. We, herein, report the synthesis of two quinazolinone derivatives of thiourea and hydrazine, 3-amino-2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (QH) and 4-oxo-2-phenylquinazoline-3(4H)-carbothioamide (QTh), respectively.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000A multi-step synthetic strategy starting from anthranilic acid was employed to synthesise the small molecule quinazolinones 3-amino-2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (QH) and 4-oxo-2-phenylquinazoline-3(4H)-carbothioamide (QTh). The compounds were synthesised by reacting hydrazine and thiourea with 2-benzamidobenzoyl chloride in DMF under microwave irradiation (800 W at 135 °C for 4 min) in the presence of potassium carbonate. The acid chloride was prepared by chlorination of 2-benzamidobenzoic acid, which in turn was synthesised from anthranilic acid by benzoylation. This method is an efficient alternative approach to synthesising quinazolinones from benzoxazin-4-ones.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000We have successfully synthesised, isolated, and characterised the quinazolinone derivative QH (yield: 81%) and QTh (yield: 85%). The structures of the compounds were established through spectroscopic techniques. Theoretical optimisation of the structures was also achieved using DFT. The HOMO-LUMO difference for QH and QTh was calculated to be 4.60 and 4.47 eV, respectively.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000The reported protocol is advantageous over conventional methods of quinazoline synthesis from benzoxazin-4-ones. The time required for the reaction is much less (4 min) as compared to the usual requirements of reflux (> 4 h); the higher energy gap of QTh indicates greater stability than that of QH.\u0000Keywords: 3-amino-2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one (QH), 4-oxo-2-phenylquinazoline-3(4H)-carbothioamide (QTh), HOMO-LUMO, DMF, microwave irradiation.\u0000","PeriodicalId":43539,"journal":{"name":"Current Microwave Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47817560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several heterogeneous catalysts are considered strong microwave absorbers that can heat the reaction from inside the reactor. Such materials include clays, zeolites, or supported metal catalysts.
