Title
Combining isocyanides with carbon dioxide in Palladium-catalyzed heterocycle synthesis : N3-substituted quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones via a three-component reaction

Abstract
We report a Pd-catalyzed three-component reaction of 2-bromoanilines, carbon dioxide, and isocyanides. The combination of these two readily available C1-reactants, featuring a huge difference in kinetic and thermodynamic stability, is hitherto unprecedented in transition-metal catalysis. With this one-pot three-component reaction, N3-substituted quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones are obtained in moderate to high yields in a completely regio- and chemoselective manner. Our approach easily allows variation of the arene and N3-substitution pattern of the desired heterocycle. The formal synthesis of different APIs illustrates its practical applicability. In addition, the methodology also allows for a convenient and selective 13C-labeling through the use of 13CO2. This is illustrated for [2-13C]-2,4-dichloro-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline synthesis, a key intermediate for several APIs.
