3- Amino-2-hydroxy-47/-pyrido pyrimidin-4-ones

Chemical reduction [with aqueous titanium(III) chloride in dilute acetic acid] or catalytic reduction (in the presence of 10% palladium-on-charcoal by transfer hydrogenation from cyclohexene or with hydrogen) of 3-nitro-4//-pyrido[l,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 176 (R = H, 8-Me, 8-OMe, 7-C1) gave 3-amino-4//-pyrido[l,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones [90JCR(S)308]. Chemical and catalytic reduction of 3,8-dinitro-9-hydroxy-4//-pyrido[l,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one yielded an unstable product. 

Reaction of 2-amino-4/f-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-ones 143 with HNMei -HCl and paraformaldehyde in Dowtherm A afforded a mixture of 3-(A,A-dimethylamino)methyl derivatives 144 and bis-compounds 145 (93FES1225). Mannich reaction of 9-hydroxy-2-methyl-4//-pyri-dor],2-nlpyrimidin-4-one (146) yielded 8-aminomethyl derivatives 147 (94KFZ(10)23). 

Hydroxy-2-methyl-4//-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-one was prepared in the reaction of 2-amino-3-benzyloxypyridine and ethyl acetoacetate at 60 °C, then at 100 °C for 3 h in 22% yield (96MIP1). Reaction of 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine and ethyl 2-methylacetoacetate in a 1 2 mixture of... 

Reaction of 3-formyM/7-pyrido[ 1,2- ]pyrimidin-l-ones with hydroxylamine O-sulfonic acid at 5 °C, then 50 °C yielded 3-nitriles <2003T4113>. Treatment of 2-hydroxy-3-(dimethylamono)methyF4//-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidin-4-one with Mel, then with KCN gave the 3-cyanomethyl derivative <2004MI215>. A condensation product was obtained from 5-amino-l-ethyl-6-hydroxy-l,3-dihydrobenzimidazol-2-one and 3-lbrmyl-2-hydroxyA//-pyndo[ 1,2- ]pynmidin-l-one <2002W002/38549>. l-(2-Aminopyrimidin-4-yl)-8-phenyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6//-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidin-6-ones were prepared from l-(2-methylthiopyrimidin l-yl)-8-phenyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6//-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidin-6-one by treatment with MCPBA, and then with aralkylamines <2005W005/070932>. 

Ferrarini et al. studied the reaction of 2,6-diamino- and 2-amino-6-acetamidopyridine with different jS-oxo esters in polyphosphoric acid at 80°C (90JHC881). Generally, complex reaction mixtures that contained different bi- and tricyclic products were obtained (see Scheme 7 and Table IX). The products were separated by flash chromatography. In the case of 2-amino-6-acetamidopyridine, the 2,6-diacetamidopyridine 97 was the main product. This compound 97 was also obtained by transamidation in good yield when 2-amino-6-acetamidopyridine was heated in polyphosphoric acid at 80°C. 2-Hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridines 98 were formed in a Conrad-Limpach-type cyclocondensation of 2-aminopyridines and /3-keto ester, while 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridines 99 were probably formed by a ring transformation of 4//-pyrido[l,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 100 obtained by the cyclocondensation of 2-aminopyridines and a /3-keto ester. The cyclocondensation of 7-amino-4-hydroxy-l,8-naphthyridine 99 (R = H) and a... 

Heating 9-hydroxy-2-methyl-8-nitro-4//-pyrido[ 1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one 326 in dimethylformamide in the presence of hydrazine hydrate and Raney nickel at 50°C afforded 8-amino derivative 327 (92KGS1660). 8-Amino derivative 327 was also prepared from 8-phenylazo derivative 328.
