Researches on benzodiazines

2-R-Quinazolones have been synthesized (R=Me, Ph,-pyridyl,-furyl), and subsequently the 4-chlorides and the corresponding 2-R-4-hydrazinoquinazolines were obtained. By the reaction of orthoformic ester and nitric acid on the hydrazines, 5-R- [3, 4-c]-s-triazoloquinazolines and 5-R- [1, 5-c] tetrazoloquinazolines were prepared, respectively. The compounds in which R=Me differ considerably from compounds with other groups, both in color and stability of intermediate reaction products. 5-R- [1, 5-c] tetrazoloquinazolines are hydrolyzed by HCl into quinazol-4-ones.For Part IV see [1].
