An efficient method to access 2‐(2‐β‐aryl ketone) substituted 2‐arylquinazolinones is reported. 2‐Carboxyl allylic alcohols, which were readily available from the Morita‐Baylis‐Hillman adducts, were used as the synthons. The reaction between 2‐aryl quinazolinones and 3‐hydroxy‐2‐methylene‐5‐phenylpentanoic acid was catalyzed by [RhCp*Cl2]2‐CF3COOAg through C−H activation and underwent facile decarboxylation...
