The compounds embraced by formula I may be prepared by the following methods:
METHOD A
By reacting a compound of the formula ##STR6## wherein A, B, D, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 have the same meanings as in formula I, and
X is a nucleophilic exchangeable substituent, such as halogen, or, together with the terminal and .beta.-carbon atom of D, forms an epoxy group;
with an amine of the formula ##STR7## wherein R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 have the same meanings as in formula I.
The reaction is advantageously carried out in a solvent such as ethanol, isopropanol, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, optionally in the presence of an acid-binding agent, for instance on alcoholate or alkali metal carbonate such as potassium tert. butylate or potassium carbonate, and optionally in a closed vessel at temperatures between 50.degree. and 200.degree. C., but preferably at temperatures between 70.degree. and 150.degree. C. It is of particular advantage to carry out the reaction by using as the solvent an excess of the amine of the formula III.
METHOD B
By alkylating a compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein A, B, D, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.4 have the same meanings as in formula I, and
at least one of the substituents R.sub.3 ', R.sub.5 ' and R.sub.6 ' is hydrogen and the others have the meanings defined for R.sub.3, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6, respectively, in formula I,
with a compound of the formula
Z--Y (V)
wherein
Y has the meanings previously defined for R.sub.3, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 except hydrogen; and
Z is a nucleophilic exchangeable group, for instance halogen, such as chlorine, bromine or iodine, methylsulfonyloxy, p-toluenesulfonyloxy or methoxysulfonyloxy, or together with the terminal and .beta.-carbon-atom of R.sub.6 forms an epoxy group;
or with formaldehyde/formic acid.
The alkylation is preferably carried out in a solvent, such as acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, with a corresponding alkyl halide, for instance with methyl iodide, ethyl bromide, tert. butyl chloride, 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-ethyl bromide, 2-(2-methylphenoxy)-ethyl bromide or 1-chloro-2-hydroxy-3-(4-metyoxyphenoxy)-propane, with a corresponding sulfonyloxy compound, for example with dimethylsulfate, diethylsulfate or tert. butyl-p-toluene sulfonate, or with a corresponding epoxide such as 3-(4-methoxyphenoxy)-propyleneoxide, optionally in the presence of an inorganic or tertiary organic base, for instance in the presence of potassium carbonate, potassium tert. butylate, triethylamine or pyridine, where the latter may also serve as a solvent, at temperatures between 0.degree. and 180.degree. C., preferably, however, at the boiling point of the reaction mixture.
A methylation can also be carried out with formaldehyde-formic acid at elevated temperatures, preferably, however, at the boiling point of the reaction mixture.
The compounds of the formula I are basic and therefore form addition salts with inorganic or organic acids. Examples of non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts are those formed with hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid or the like.
The starting compounds of the formula II and III are either described in the literature or may be prepared be methods described in the literature.
Thus, for example a compound of the formula II can be obtained by reacting an oxazine [see J. Chem. Soc. 1972, 709; German Offenlegungsschrift 2,114,884; and Syn. Comm. 10, 241-243 (1980)] of the formula ##STR9## wherein A, B, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.4 have the meanings previously defined, with an amine of the formula
R.sub.3 --NH.sub.2 (VII)
wherein R.sub.3 has the meanings previously defined, removing the acetyl radical, and alkylating the resulting intermediate with a halide of the formula
Br--D--X (VIII)
wherein D and X have the meanings previously defined.
A starting compound of the formula IV can be obtained, for example, by reacting a corresponding pyrimidine-4-one with a corresponding amine.
The following examples illustrate the present invention and will enable others skilled in the art to understand it more completely. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not limited solely to the particular examples given below.
The chemical structure of the novel compounds was confirmed by IR-, UV- and NMR-spectra and by elemental analysis.

The compounds of the present invention, that is, those embraced by formula I and their non-toxic, pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts, have useful pharmacodynamic properties. More particularly, they exhibit hypotensive, antiarrhythmic and .beta.-receptor-blocking activities in warm-blooded animals such as dogs.
The above properties of the compounds of the instant invention were ascertained by the pharmacological tests described below, and the results of these tests for a few representative species of the genus are shown in the tables, where
A=2-[4-(2-Hydroxy-3-tert.butylamino-propoxy)-phenyl]-3-methyl-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-quinazolin-4-one,

F=2-{4-[3-(2-Hydroxy-3-(3-methyl-phenoxy)-propylamino)-propoxy]-phenyl}-3-methyl-8-methoxy-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one.
1. Effect on blood circulation
The blood circulation tests were carried out on dogs with a body weight of 18-29 kg under chloraloseurethane-nembutal anesthesia (54+270+10 mg/kg i.v.). After opening the thorax in the 4th left intercostal space the animals were ventilated with room air by means of a Harvard respirator.
The arterial blood pressure was measured in the arteria carotis by a Statham pressure transducer; the heart rate was measured electronically from the sequence of the R-peaks of the electrocardiogram. The maximum rate of pressure increase (dp/dr max) in the left ventricula was measured by means of a Konigsberg pressure received and a Grass differential amplifier.
All parameters were recorded by means of a direct-writer. For anticoagulation the animals were injected i.v. with a solution of 10 mg/kg of sodium polyethylenesulfonate in 20% polydiol. The test compounds were administered intravenously to groups of 3 to 4 dogs.

2. Effect on the contraction power and frequency of isolated auricles of the guinea pig
The maximum delivered tension (isomeric contraction power) and frequency were measured in spontaneously beating, isolated auricles from 4-5 guinea pigs, maintained in a carbogen-bubbled solution at a temperature of 30.degree. C. The tension was registered isometrically on a Grass polygraph. The substances were added to the bath cumulatively in increasing concentrations at intervals of 10 minutes between the individual concentration steps. Because of the poor water solubility, the preparation of the dilutions was started each from 1% solutions in polydiol, which were further diluted in tyrode solutions. The end concentrations of polydiol in the bath of 1:1000 obtained thereby are pharmacologically ineffective.
