Regioselective synthesis of fused benzopyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines under solvent-free conditions
摘要:
New 6,8-dihydro-5H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines 6 have been obtained in a novel solvent-free three-component reaction involving beta-tetralone along with 5-aminopyrazoles 1 and benzaldehydes 2. The isomeric 6,10-dihydro-5H-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines 9 could not be prepared in a similar fashion directly from alpha-tetralone, but were obtained by the reaction of amines 1 with benzylidene-derivative 10 of alpha-tetralone in similar conditions. The yields of quinolines obtained via this novel protocol were good and the reaction times varied from few minutes to just few seconds. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
