The regiospecific C‐2–H arylation of N‐3‐substituted quinazolin‐4(3H)‐ones with a wide range of aryl or (hetero)aryl halides under microwave irradiation was studied. A ligand‐dependent palladium/copper bicatalytic system was developed and allowed direct cross‐coupling with a variety of (hetero)aryl halides. This useful and scalable procedure promotes the construction of C(sp2)–C(sp2) bonds from arenes or (hetero)arenes and aryl or (hetero)aryl bromides and chlorides in a time‐efficient strategy. The extension of the reaction to various N‐3‐substituted quinazolin‐4(3H)‐ones with iodobenzene as well as the scope and limitations of the method were also investigated.
