Pyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidinium salts

Reactions of 5-aryl- and 5,7-diaryl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidinium salts with hydrazine were studied. In the former case, the reaction products were the 6-amino-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxopyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidinium salts. 5,7-Diarylpyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidinium salts were transformed into either the corresponding pyridinium salts or 1H-pyrimido-[5,4-d][1,2]diazepine-2,4(3H,9H)-diones, depending on the hydrazine concentration and the reaction time.
