Abstract

The SNAr reactions of 4-chloro- or 4-fluorotetrahydroquinazolines with 2-aminophenol as the O-nucleophile under basic conditions are accompanied by the Smiles rearrangement to afford the formal N-substitution 2-hydroxyphenylamino product. The similar reactions of N1-oxides disfavor the rearrangement allowing for the formation of O-substitution analog.
