Abstract: The indoloquinazolinone ring system has attracted considerable attention as a pharmacophore, because it shows various biological activities. The reported synthetic methods for the compound are simple and direct, but are not effective for the direct synthesis of indoloquinazolinone with a methylene group at the C-6 position. A palladium (0)- catalyzed cyclization of chloroquinazolinone via CÀH functionalization was developed for ...
