Abstract

A Convenient Aqueous Copper-Catalyzed Synthesis of Quinazolinones. -A simple and efficient method for the coupling of 2-halobenzoic acids with amidines or guanidines is developed. The green reaction is catalyzed by an aqueous micellar surfactant which is recycled and reused in five additional catalytic cycles without loss of its activity. -(XU, Y.; XIE, Q.; LI, W.; SUN, H.; WANG, Y.; SHAO*, L.; Tetrahedron 71 (2015) 29, 4853-4858, http://dx.
