Abstract
Reactions of methyl 3-amino-1H-indole-2-carboxylates with aryl isocyanates, aryl isothiocyanates, and cyanamides led to the formation of 5H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indole derivatives. In the reaction with isocyanates formed 3-aryl-1H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indole-2,4(3H,5H)-diones that were involved into the alkylation at two nitrogen atoms. The reaction with isothiocyanates afforded 3-aryl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indol-4(5H)-ones undergoing alkylation at the sulfur atom. The reactions with benzoylcyanamide and N-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)cyanamide resulted in N-(4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrimido-[5,4-b]indol-2-yl)benzamides and 2-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-ylamino)-3H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indol-4(5H)-ones respectively.
Methyl 3-amino-1H-indole-2-carboxylates can be used to synthesize 5H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indole derivatives by reacting with aryl isocyanates, aryl isothiocyanates,
