Abstract
Reactions of the title compound with the malonic acid derivatives diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate (EMME), ethyl ethoxymethylenecyanoacetate (EMCA) and ethoxymethylenemalononitrile (EMMN) are reported. Condensations occur at the amino group or C-4, depending on conditions and the former intermediate was successfully cyclized to the pyrimido[1,2-b]isoquinoline system. Reactions with 2,4-pentanedione and p-bromophenacyl bromide gave only the angular systems, pyrido[2,3-c]isoquinoline and pyrrolo[2,3-c]isoquin-oline, respectively.
