| Abstract: | A new efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of highly biologically active pyrano-[4,3-d]pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines on the basis of Smiles rearrangement of ethyl [(8-alkyl(aryl)-5-cyano-3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrano[3,4-c]pyridin-6-yl)oxy]acetates. Intermediate acetohydrazides have also been isolated. The proposed procedure is advantageous due to the possibility of avoiding experimentally difficult chlorination stage. |
