One-pot quinazolin-4-ylidenethiourea synthesis via N-(2-cyanophenyl) benzimidoyl isothiocyanate

Abstract

1,1-Disubstituted-3-(2-phenyl-3H-quinazolin-4-ylidene)thioureas (8) were synthesized in a one pot reaction of N-(2-cyanophenyl)benzimidoyl isothicyanate (3) with secondary amines. The products underwent transamination reactions. Compounds 8a-8g were identified by FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, mass spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.
