Synthesis of tetrahydroquinazolines

Recent Literature


An iridium-catalyzed asymmetric [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 1,3,5-triazinanes with 2-(1-hydroxyallyl)anilines/2-(1-hydroxyallyl)phenols provides a wide range of tetrahydroquinazolines in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. In addition, chiral 1,3-benzoxazines, which are challenging products, could also be obtained in excellent enantioselectivities using this protocol.

A copper-catalyzed asymmetric formal [4 + 2]-cycloaddition of copper-allenylidenes and hexahydro-1,3,5-triazines provides chiral tetrahydroquinazolines in good yields and with high enantioselectivities for most cases.
