Pyrido quinolines

The UV spectra of pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazine-l,4-diones have been recorded (68MI21501), whilst several of the latter were also used in chemiluminescence studies. Quinolinic and cinchomeronic hydrazides showed no chemiluminescence (60NKK173, 37JPR(148)135), but it was observed in the 8-hydroxy derivative (305) (72YZ703). 

Structural problems in the pyrido[3,4-c]pyridazine series (76CPB1870) and in the fused pyridazino[4,5-6]quinoline series (80CPB3457) have also invoked mass spectral determinations. 

Reactions involving quinoline hydrazide derivatives have been noted in the pyridazino-[4,3-c]- (64MI21500), -[4,5-f ]- (31M(58)238) and -[4,5-c]-quinoline (71CB3341) series, whilst the double cyclization of (358) to the pyridazino[4,5-f ]quinoline (359) (80CPB3457) and related cyclizations in the same series (80H(14)267) are of a basically similar type. A lone cyclization of this type from cinnoline intermediates involves the o-acetonylcarboxamide type formation of the pyridine ring to give the pyrido[3,4-c]cinnoline (360) (76JCS(Pl)592). 

H,4H-Oxazolo[5,4,3-y]pyrido[3,2-g]quinolin-4-one, 8-hydroxymethyl-6-methyl — see Nybomyein 5H-Oxazolo[2,3-[Pg.731]

The Conrad-Limpach reaction has been applied as a key step in the formation of pyrido[4,3-b]quinoline. Condensation of 3 different anilines 55 (R = H, Br, OMe) with keto-ester 56 provided the enamino-esters 57 in acceptable yields. Cyclization gave the desired quinolones 58 in good to moderate yield. ... 

When 3-phenyl-3//-triazolo[4,5-/]quinoline was heated at 390 00°C, IH-pyrido[2,3-c]carbazole 149 originated. Its structure could be confirmed by unambiguous synthesis from the 8,9,10,1 l-tetrahydro-7//-pyrido[2,3-c]carbazole (52CJC711). 

The yellow colored, sparcely soluble 5-ethyl-2-methyl-l l/f-pyrido[3,4-u] carbazolium 347 isolated from Aspidosperma gilbertii exists as a hydroxide after filtration of the corresponding iodide over basic aluminum oxide. A short synthesis was described (80CB3245). The Pyrido[3,4-a]carbazole ring system is present in the alkaloid AG-1, whereas Cryptolepine (348) possesses the indolo[3,2-b]quinoline moiety (65MI1). 

Bond orders, charges on the atoms in 1 l//-pyrido[2,l-Z)]quinazolin-l 1-one and its protonated form were calculated by quantum chemical calculations by the semiempirical AMI method. According to the results, the equilibrium conformation of the ring in 1 l//-pyrido[2,l-Z)]quinazolin-l 1-one is planar, while l//-pyrimido[l,2-u]quinolin-1-one adopts a conformation close to a half-chair due to the unfavorable interactions between the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group and the ring C-10 atom in the pen-position (97MI22). 

Reaction of malononitrile and quinazolinone 429 in the presence of three drops of NEts yielded pyrido[2,l-Z)]quinazolinone 430 (97MI7). 9,11-Dioxo-5,9-dihydro-l l//-pyrido[2,l-Z)]quinoline-8-carboxylates 432 were prepared in the reaction of anthranilonitrile and 2-piperidones 431 in boiling EtOH in the presence of AcOH (00JCS(P1)3686, 00PS133). 

Perhydro derivatives of pyrido[l,2-7)][l,2]oxazines are frequently applied in the total synthesis of various alkaloids to control the stereochemistry, and pyrido[l,2-c][l,3]oxazines and [l,3]oxazino[3,4-u]quinolines were also used in the stereoselective syntheses of different alkaloids. Perhydropyrido[l,2-c][l,3]oxazines and their benzologs are formed form 2-(2-hydroxyethyl) piperidines and from their benzologs to justify the stereochemistry of 2-(2-hydroxyethyl) derivatives. Different optically active pipecolic acids can be prepared via 4-phenylperhydropyrido[2,l-c][l,4]oxazin-l-ones. 

Treatment of pyrazolo[l,5-a]quinoline-3,3,4-tricarboxylates 79 with CS2CO3 afforded 2,3-dihydro-l//,7//-pyrido[3,2,l-i/]cinnoline-3,3,8-tricar-boxylates 80 (96BCJ1371). 

Cyclocondensation of a-aryl-2-pyridylacetamides and 2-(3,4-dihydroiso-quinolin-l-yl)acetamide with Et2C03 in the presence of NaOEt in boiling EtOH afforded 4-aryl-2,3-dihydro-l//-pyrido[l,2-c]pyrimidine-l,3-diones (99JHC389) and 6,7-dihydro-4//-pyrimido[6,1 -a]isoquinoline-2,4-dione (98MIP15), respectively. 

Reaction of 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-3-methyl- 240 (R = Me), or a mixture of 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-3-aryl-57/-pyrido[l,2,3-dfe]-l,4-benzoxazin-5-ones 240 (R = Ar) and (8-aroylmethoxy)quinolin-2(l//)-ones 241 (R = Ar) with ethyl 2-(bromomethyl)acrylate in the presence of activated Zn and hydroquinone gave 8-[(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-4-methylidene-5-oxo-2-furanyl)-methoxy]quinolin-2(l//)-ones (242) (97HCA1161). 6,7-Dihydro derivatives of 240 reacted similarly (00HCA349). 

Halocyclization of 8-(allylamino)quinolines 408 with I2 afforded 3-iodomethyl-2,3-dihydro-l//-pyrido[l,2,3-[Pg.318]
