The one-pot synthesis of quinazoline-2,4-diones was developed in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) by metal-free catalysis. The commercially available (Boc) 2 O acted as a key precursor in the construction of the 2-position carbonyl of quinazolinediones. The p -methoxybenzyl (PMB)-activated heterocyclization could smoothly proceed at room temperature instead of the microwave condition. This strategy is compatible with a variety of substrates with different functional groups. Furthermore, this protocol was utilized to smoothly prepare Zenarestat with a total yield of 70%.
