Product Information

• Name: 2-Hydroxy-4-quinazolinecarboxylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Hydroxy-4-quinazolinecarboxylic acid is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water. It is a carbamate and is used to synthesize guanidine derivatives. 2-Hydroxy-4-quinazolinecarboxylic acid can be obtained by decarboxylation of 2,6-dichloroquinazoline with sodium or potassium hydroxide in water. This condensation product is then methylated with methyl iodide in the presence of potassium hydroxide. The final step involves the addition of an inert solvent such as acetone or ether and the salt potassium chloride to produce 2-hydroxy-4-quinazolinecarboxylic acid.
