The conversion is carried out with phosgene in'a suitable solvent such as, for example, benzene, toluene or xylene. The isocyanate. is then condensed with the appropriate carboxamide to form the corresponding adduct. The condensation can be carried out either neat or in an inert solvent such vas xylene or toluene. It is preferred to carry out the reac tion at a temperatue between 100°-150° C. The adduct 10 is then cyclized to form a quinazolinone. Suitable cy clizing agents which can be employed include poly phosphoric acid, polyphosphoric ester and a mixture of phosphorous pentoxide and methanesulfonic acid. The ratio of the cyclizing agent to the adduct may vary 15 between 1:1 and 25:1; however, the preferred ratio is 5:1. The reaction is preferably carried out at a tempera ture between 100°-130° C. in an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen. In the second route, an appropriately substi tuted acetophenone is nitrated. After separation of the 20 isomers the substituted o-nitroacetophenone is reduced to the corresponding amine. This is turn is acylated with an alkylhaloformate to give the corresponding ure thane. Cyclization of the urethane so obtained with ammonia gives the corresponding quinazolinone. Ex wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and X are as de?ned above 25 amples of these transformations are illustrated below. and R is lower alkyl having l-5 carbon atoms. Pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound As can be seen from the diagram, the N1 substituted ' of the present invention as the active ingredient in inti quinazolinone (2) is prepared by reacting a substituted mate admixture with a pharmaceutical carrier can be quinazolinone with an appropriately substituted ole?n, prepared according to conventional pharmaceutical such as methyl cinnamate, methyl acrylate, methyl cro compounding techniques. The carrier may take a wide tonate, acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate, for exam variety of forms depending on the form of preparation ple. The particular ole?n employed will depend upon desired for administration, e.g., intravenous, oral or the type of substitution desired in the end product. The parenteral. In preparing the compositions in oral dosage reaction is carried out in the presence of a basic catalyst form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be such as sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, potas 35 employed, such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, sium ?uoride, sodium ?uoride, potassium hydroxide, alcohols, ?avoring agents, preservatives, coloring sodium hydroxide, alkali metal alkoxides such as potas agents and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations sium ethoxide, and sodium methoxide, quaternary am such as, for example, suspensions, elixirs and solutions; monium hydroxides such as benzyltrimethylammonium or carriers such as starches, sugars, diluents, granulating hydroxide, quaternary ammonium ?uorides such as 40 agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the tetraethylammonium ?uoride and tertiary amines such like in the case of oral solid preparations such as, for as triethylamine. The reaction temperature employed example, powders, capsules and tablets. Because of their can vary between —-l0° C. and 100° C.; the preferred ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the reaction temperature is about 65° C. most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case The N1 substituted quinazolinone (2) can be used to solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. prepare the other N1 substituted quinazolinones by the If desired, tablets may be sugar coated or enteric coated routes shown in the diagram. For example, the N1 sub by standard techniques. For parenterals, the carrier will stituted quinazolinone (2) can be conveniently alkylated usually comprise sterile water, though other ingredi with an alkyl iodide such as methyl or ethyl iodide or a ents, for example, to aid solubility or for preservative benzyl iodide such as 0-, m-, or p-?uorobenzyl, o-, m-, 50 purposes, may be included.
