The Annelation for Enaminoureides of 3,3-Dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline Series by Action of Oxalyl Chloride and Ninhydrin

Аннотация

By reaction of Ritter cyclization of cyanoacetylureas with dimethylbenzylcarbinoles the corresponding enaminoureides were obtained, derivatives of 3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline. The polyfunctional character of obtained compounds is confirmed by the structure of products of reaction with some electrophiles: phenyl isocyanate reacts at the γ-C atom of enamine and CONH₂ group of urea, under the action of oxalyl chloride annelation of a pyrrole cycle occurs with the formation of a derivative of 2,3-dioxopyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline. Reaction with ninhydrin occurs similary with enaminoamides having hydrogen atoms at the amide nitrogen: a pyrrole ring is fused with the formation of a system of indeno[1,2-b]pyrrole.
