REACTION OF 2-FORMYL-1,3-CYCLANEDIONES WITH N,N'-SUBSTITUTED 1,1-DIAMINO-2-NITROETHYLENES

Abstract

Reaction of 2-formyldimedone and 2-formyl-1,3-indanedione with 1,1-di(2-hydroxyethylamino)- and 1,1-di(4-morpholyl)-2-nitroethylenes produces 2-[3,3-di(2-hydroxyethylamino)-2-nitroprop-2-en-1-ylidene]- and 2-[3,3-di(4-morpholyl)-2-nitroprop-2-en-1-ylidene]-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanediones and the 1,3-indanediones, respectively. The reaction of the same 2-formyl-1,3-cyclanediones with 2-nitromethyleneimidazolidine yields 8,8-dimethyl-4-nitro-6-oxo-1,2,3,6,7,8-hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]quinoline and 4-nitro-6-oxo-1,2-dihydro-6H-imidazo[1,2-c]-4-azafluorene.
