Abstract: | An unusual path for the reaction of 2-aryl-1-dimethylamino-2H-isoindoles with N-R-maleimides, leading to the imides of l,2-dihydronaphthalene-2,3-dicarboxylic adds, was established by x-ray crystallographic analysis.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 614–618, May, 1992 |
