Abstract: | The acylation of 3-amino-4-cyano-1(2H)isoquinolines with benzoyl chloride leading to the formation of 1,3 oxazino[4,5-clisoquinoline-6-ones has been studied. Previously undescribed 1-aminopyrimido[4,5-cJisoquinolirt 6-ones have been obtained by the reaction of the appopriate 3-amino-](2H)isoginolones with formamide. Nucleophilic replacement has been carried out with 3-amino-1-chloroisoquinoline by the action of sodium hydroxide, primary alcohols, hydrazine hydrate, and various amines. 1,2,4-Triazino[2,3-b]isoginolone has been synthesized by condensing 2,3-diamino-1 (2H)isoquinolone with mesoxalic acid ethyl ester. |
