Abstract
A simple and efficient procedure has been developed for the one-pot synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-ones from anthranilic acids, ortho esters and amines using a catalytic amount of iodine under solvent-free conditions to afford the corresponding products in excellent yields. The direct use of commercially available catalyst, mild and solvent-free reaction conditions, short reaction time, easy workup and excellent yields are the advantages of the present protocol.
