2- Methyl-8-nitro-9-hydroxy-4//pyrido pyrimidin-4-ones

Diorganotin(IV) complexes (109) were prepared from 4/f-pyrido[l,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones with Me2SnCl2 and Ph2SnCl2 in dry CHCI3 (96MI4). Different complexes of 2-methyl-9-hydroxy-4//-pyrido[l, 2-n]pyrimidin-4-one and its 8-nitro derivative were prepared with Cu(I)Cl, Cu(II)Cl2, Ni(II)Cl2, Co(II)Cl2, Mn(II)Cl2, and Ag(I)N03 m EtOH (00MI23). Complexes of 2,4-dimethyl-9-hydroxypyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidinium salt were obtained with Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III), and Eu(III) ions in acetone (00MI24). 

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. 

Diorganotin(IV) complexes with 4//-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-ones 109 (96MI4), complexes of 2-methyl- and 2-methyl-8-nitro-9-hydroxy-4//-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-ones with Ag(I), Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Mn(II) ions (00MI23), 2,4-dimethyl-9-hydroxypyrido[l, 2-n]pyrimidinium perchlorate and its complexes with prasedynium, neodymium, samarium and europium (00MI24) were characterized by UV spectroscopy. 

Hydroxy-2-methyl-4//-pyrido[ 1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one 365 gave 8-sub-stituted derivatives in a reaction with different electrophilic reagents (Scheme 28) (92KGS1660). Nitration gave 8-nitro-9-hydroxy-2-methyl-pyridopyrimidin-4-one 326. Reaction with iodine afforded 8-iodo-...
