Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The reaction of isocyanates and isothiocyanates with 2-indolylurethanes takes place primarily in the 3 position of the indole ring to give the corresponding amides and thioamides, which smoothly undergo cyclization when they are heated with sodium ethoxide to give the corresponding quinazoline derivatives.
