Cyclocon-densation of the spirotetrahydrocarboline with chloroacetic chloride and the subsequent reductive debenzylation afforded the new ring systems of trihydrodiazabicyclo[3.m.n]alkano[4′,5′:1,2]pyrido[3,4-b]indoles 8a , 8b , and 8c . The structures of the bicyclic systems 8a, 8b , and 8c were determined by using both, high-resolution ¹H and ¹³C nmr techniques and force field and MNDO calculations.

The synthesis of new pyrido[3′,2′:5,6]thiopyrano[3,2‐b]indol‐5(6H)‐ones was accomplished by the Fischer‐indole cyclization of some 2,3‐dihydro‐3‐phenylhydrazonothiopyrano[2,3‐b]pyridin‐4(4H)‐ones, obtained from the 2,3‐dihydro‐3‐hydroxymethylenethiopyrano[2,3‐b]pyridin‐4(4H)‐one, by the Japp‐Klingemann reaction. 6H‐Pyrido[3′,2′:5,6]thiopyrano[4,3‐b]quinolines were obtained by reaction of 2,3‐dihydrothiopyrano‐[2,3‐b]pyridin‐4(4H)‐ones with o‐aminobenzaldehyde or 5‐substituted isatins. The preparation of some derivatives, functionalized with an alkylamino‐substituted side chain, is also described.

Starting with 2-substituted quinoline-3,4-dicarboxylic acids, a series of substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinone-3-thiones were obtained. The latter compounds were converted to the three novel polyazasteroid series: 1,2,4-Triazolo[3′,4′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]-quinolin-11(12H)ones, imidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5c]quinolin-11(12H)ones and 2,3-dihydroimidazo[2′,1′:2,3]pyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-11(12H)ones. The intermediate 3-hydrazino-1,2-dihydropyrimido[4,5-c]quinolinones and nitrous acid gave the 3-azido derivatives rather than the tetrazolo compounds.
