3-Formylchromone(1) reacts with active methylene derivatives to yield condensation products 2a-d, 1 0 , l l and 12. Treatment of 2a-d with ammonia or methylamine gives pyridines 3-6. Alternatively, reaction of 1 with enamine derivatives yields pyrido compounds 15, 17, 19, 21, 23 and 28 in one step. Factors determining the formation and regiospecificity of the pyridine ring forming reactions are also discussed.1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
