Synthesis of benzoxazinone derivatives: A new route to 2-(N- phthaloylmethyl)-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one

Abstract

A new method has been designed to prepare the known benzoxazinone derivative 2-(N-phthaloylmethyl)-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one (4). The acyl chloride derivative N-phthaloylglycine reacts with anthranilic acid in chloroform, in the presence of triethylamine, to give an intermediate that is then reacted with cyanuric chloride, used as a cyclization agent, to produce the benzoxazinone derivative.
