ZnCl2-SiO2 Supported Synthesis and Characterization of Novel 2-Phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one Derivative

The present report describes a convenient novel synthetic to method synthesize quinazolin-4(3H)-ones from simple and readily available 2-aminobenzamide and benzaldehyde in the presence of catalyst ZnCl2-SiO2 giving corresponding 2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives 3A-3F. These newly synthesized products have been characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and mass spectroscopic techniques.
