The mechanisms for the C(sp3)-H activation and addition reactions between acetonitrile (or acetone) alkynes have been investigated with M06-2X-D3/ma-def2-TZVP method basis set. SMD (solvation model based on solute electron density) was applied to simulate solvent effect. In first second reactions, 2-phenylbut-3-yn-2-ol reacted acetone, respectively. First, activations of acetone could be achieved by PhCOO• t-BuO• radicals. Then, converted into final products P1 P2. Gibbs free energy surfaces these two suggest that blue lines would favorable paths lower barriers, terminal C atom C≡C bond is best reactive site. Moreover, analysis IRI (Interaction Region Indicator) reveals Z- E-configuration transformations. While in third fourth methyl(2-(phenylethynyl)phenyl)sulfane has interactions via some paths, profiles show C10 atom, rather than C11 priority, are favorable.

Quinazolinones, essential quinazoline derivatives, exhibit diverse biological activities with applications in pharmaceuticals and insecticides. Some derivatives have already been developed as commercial drugs. Given the rising cancer incidence, there is a critical need for new anticancer agents, quinazolinones show promising potential this domain. The present review focuses on novel advances synthesis of these important scaffolds other medicinal aspects involving drug design, structure–activity relationship, action mechanisms quinazolinone to help development derivatives.
