Synthesen und Reaktionen von Pyridazinderivaten, 11. Mitt.: 5-Acyl-4-pyridazincarbonsäurrester als ?key intermediates” für 4-Acylpyridazine und 4-Alkyl-bzw. 4-Arylpyridazino[4,5-d]pyridazin-1 (2H) one

A convenient general method of preparing 4-acylpyridazines (4) is reported. It involves homolytic acylation of ethyl-4-pyridazinecarboxylate yielding ethyl-5-acyl-4-pyridazinecarboxylates (2) which easily can be converted to4 by alkaline hydrolysis followed by decarboxylation. The hitherto unknown pyridazino4,5-d]pyridazine-1 (2H) ones bearing an alkyl- or arylsubstituent on C-4 (5a-g) were prepared in quantitative yields by reaction of2 with hydrazine.
