A new series of 3-(quinazol-2-yl)-quinolines was synthesized by SNAr reaction from easily prepared 4-chloro-2-(2-chloroquinolin-3-yl)quinazolines and a range of phenols and thiophenol as nucleophiles. The AlCl3-mediated CC bond formation was also successfully exploited to introduce aryl and hereroaryl substituents on one or both heterocyclic units. These procedures afford efficient syntheses of polysubstituted 3-(quinazol-2-yl)-quinolines in few steps and high yields. Some of these polysubstituted 3-(quinazol-2-yl)-quinolines inhibit the human 20S proteasome.
