A Review on the Synthesis and Chemical Transformation of Quinazoline 3-Oxides

Abstract

The synthesis of quinazoline 3-oxides and their derivatives has attracted considerable attention due to their reactivity as intermediates in the synthesis of quinazoline analogues and their ring-expanded derivatives. Despite this, there is no comprehensive review dedicated to the synthesis and chemical transformation of these biologically relevant azaaromatic oxides. This review aims to provide an up-to-date record of the synthesis of quinazoline 3-oxides and their chemical transformation. It is hoped that this information will help medicinal chemistry researchers to design and synthesize new derivatives or analogues to treat various diseases.
