Abstract Phosphotungstic acid has been found as green catalyst for the synthesis of spiro and cyclized quinazolinones and 2-amino substituted carboxamide under microwave irradiation and solvent-free condition has been developed. The scope of the reaction has been demonstrated for a variety of aldehydes and ketones with O-amino amides such as 2-amino-benzamide, 2-amino-5-iodo benzamide, 3-aminothiophene-2-carboxamide, 3-aminobenzofuran-2-carboxamide and 2-aminopyridine-3-carboxamides. The reaction afforded spiro-, cyclized quinazolinones and 2-amino substituted carboxamide derivatives within few minutes of irradiation in excellent yield. Plausible mechanism for the formation of products is provided. Synthetic utility of 1′H-spiro[fluorene-9,2′-quinazolin]-4′(3′H)-one 3a has been demonstrated by synthesis of 1,4-di(1′H-spiro[fluorene-9,2′-quinazolin]-4′(3′H)-one) buta-1,3-diyne 12, 1′-((1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) methyl)-1′H-spiro[fluorene-9,2′-quinazolin]-4′(3′H)-one 13 and 1′-phenyl-1′H-spiro[fluorene-9,2′-quinazolin]-4′(3′H)-one 14 under standard protocols.
