Reactions of Bisazomethines of the Naphtalene Series with 1,3-Diketones
摘要:
Bisazomethines prepared from aromatic dialdehydes and 2-naphthylamine were for the first time reacted with the following diketones: 1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5-phenyl-1,3 -cyclohexanedione, indandione, and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione was studied. The reactions with 1,3-diketones of the cyclohexane series yield benzophenanthridine derivatives. The reactions with indandione, depending on conditions, give either bisarylideneindandiones or bisdihydrobenzo[f]indenoquinoline. As evidenced by the C-13 NMR and IR spectra, in the case of biphenyl-4,4'-dicarbaldehyde bis[N-(2-naphthyl)imine] and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, 4,4'-bis(3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[f]quinolin-1-yl)biphenyl is formed.
