Quinazoline-Derived Azomethine Imines as Substrates To Access Polycyclic Compounds

Abstract

Quinazolines are essential structural constituents of many pharmaceuticals and bioactive natural products. Quinazoline-derived azomethine imines (QAIs) have emerged recently as valuable building blocks for the synthesis of various quinazoline derivatives. This Synopsis presents recent advances in (formal) cycloaddition reactions of QAIs for the synthesis of quinazoline-fused 5- to 8-membered heterocycles as well as three-dimensional compounds.
