The hydrochlorides of 0-amino ketones 1 a -e (Mannich bases) and 4,5-diazafluorenes 4a -d, which have not yet been deare easily obtained starting compounds for a novel synthesis scribed in literature. Symmetrical terpyridines 3e, 4e are of pyridines. Condensation with the heteroaromatic ketones formed in a one-step reaction of 8, 9 with dimethylmethylen-8, 9, and 10 yields 5,6-dihydro-l,lO-phenanthrolines 3a-d, 13 ammonium chloride in the presence of an ammonia source.
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.
