Significance

A traceless solid-phase synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted-6-nitro-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-2-ones 3 was developed. N-Alloc-3-amino-3-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)propionic amide 1 linked to Rink resin was converted into 2 via acylation with R1CO2H and ipso-substitution with R2NH2. The polymeric aniline 2 was treated with 50% HCO2H/CH2Cl2 to release the arylpropionic amide moiety which underwent intramolecular cyclization to form 1,4-disubstituted quinoline 3 in a traceless fashion.
