Synthesis of Hexahydrospiro[pyrazolo[3,4‐b]quinoline‐4,1′‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐2′,5(1H,4′H)‐diones] from 5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐1,2‐dione Using Fe3O4@Cu(OH)x as a Nanocatalyst

The tricyclic isatin, 5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐1,2‐dione, undergoes three‐component, one‐pot reactions with 1‐aryl‐3‐methylpyrazole‐5‐amines and cyclohexane‐1,3‐diones producing hexacyclic spiro products, hexahydrospiro[pyrazolo[3,4‐b]quinoline‐4,1‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐2′,5(1H,4′H)‐diones]. Comparable spiro condensation products are also obtained using 4‐hydroxy‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐2‐one in place of cyclohexane‐1,3‐diones.
