Abstract
The synthesis of polycyclic heteroaromatic compounds using the reaction of a quinone-methide, generated in situ, with an aromatic amine has been successfully extended using quinone-methides of coumarin and of pyridones. Preliminary studies with the benzenoid quinone-methide (33) have so far proved to give only low yields of the expected acridines. Generation of ‘quinone-methides’ in which the carbonyl is part of an amide group did not lead to polycyclic heteroaromatic compounds.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
