The reaction of anilines (R = H, m- and p-CHg, m- and p-halo-geno, W-NO2, P-OCH3, P-OC2H5) with 2-chloro-3-nitro-, 2-chloro-5-nitro-, 2-chloro-3-cyano-5-nitro-, 2-chloro-3-cyano-6-methyl-5-nitro-, and 2-chloro-3-cyano-4,6-dimethyl-5-nitro-pyridines. ... 

Nitroenamines and related compounds have been used for synthesis of a variety of heterocyclic compounds. Rajappahas summarized the chemistry of nitroenamines (see Section 4.2).140 Ariga and coworkers have developed the synthesis of heterocycles based on the reaction of nitropyridones or nitropyrimidinone with nucleophiles. For example, 2-substituted 3-nitro-pyridines are obtained by the reaction of l-methyl-3,5-dinitro-2-pyridones with ketones in the presence of ammonia (Eq. 10.82).141...

A third synthesis which has resulted in the preparation of rieinine and a number of its derivatives is due to Schroeter, Seidler, Sulzbacher and Kanitz,i2 who foimd that cyanoacetyl chloride polymerises spontaneously to 6-chloro-2 4-dihydroxy-3-cyano-pyridine. The di-sodium derivative of this with methyl sulphate produces A -methyl-6-chloro-4-hydroxy-3-cyano-2-pyridone (6-chlororicininic acid), the mono-sodium derivative of which, with methyl bromide or sulphate, is converted into 6-chlororicinine and the latter is reduced by zinc and sulphuric acid to rieinine. A fourth synthesis, starting from 3-nitro-4-pyridone, is due to Reitmann. ... 

Of the four possible oxazolopyridines, two have been studied with respect to quatemization reactions. Frazer and Tittensor prepared 2-alkyl- and 2-aryl-oxazolo[4,5-c]pyridines (105 Y = H) and converted them into methiodides, the structures of which have not been determined. Subsequently Takahashi et al. prepared the corresponding 5-methyl (105 Y = Me) and 2-methyl-5-nitro compounds and... 

Tile same methodology as mentioned for the preparation of (9) was applied for the synthesis of 8-nitro-l,6-naphthyridines. Heating diethyl N- 3-nitropyridin-4-yl)aminomethylenemalonate (12) in diphenyl ether yields ethyl 8-nitro-l,6-naphthyridin-4(lH)-one 3-carboxylate (13) (63JCS4237, 30%) and acid treatment of 4-( y, y-diethoxypropylamino)-5-nitro-2-(/3,/3 -trifluoroethoxy)-pyridine (14) gives in a similar way 8-nitro-5-(/3, /3-triflu-oroethoxy)-l,2-dihydro-l,6-naphthyridine (15, 76%). Subsequent oxidation with chloranil, acid hydrolysis, and methylation with methyl iodide gives 8-nitro-6-methyl-l,6-naphthyridin-5(6H)-one (16,63%) (81JHC941). 

Extension of this work by studying the reaction of 3-methyl-5-nitro-pyrimidin-4(3//)-one with -X-arylketones in the presence of ammonium acetate surprisingly revealed the formation of a mixture of 4-arylpyrimidines and 6-arylpyridin-2(l//)-ones (00JCS(P1)27). The ratio between pyridine and pyrimidine formation is dependent on the substituent X. With electron-donating substituents the formation of the pyridin-2(l//)-ones is favored, with electron-attracting substituents the formation of the pyrimidine derivatives (Scheme 21) In the formation of the 6-arylpyridin-2(l//)-ones the C-4- C-5-C-6 part of the pyrimidone-4 is the building block in the construction of the pyridine ring. Therefore, the pyrimidone can be considered as an activated o -nitroformylacetic acid (Scheme 21).
