A general and efficient method for the synthesis of quinazolinones, quinoxalinones, benzooxazinones, and benzothiazoles from the reactions of α-keto acids with 2-aminobenzamides, benzene-1,2-diamines, 2-aminophenols, and 2-aminobenzenethiols, respectively, is described. The reactions were conducted under catalyst-free conditions, using water as the sole solvent with no additive required, and successfully applied to the synthesis of sildenafil. More importantly, these reactions can be conducted on a mass scale, and the products can be easily purified through filtration and washing with ethanol (or crystallized).
