Abstract

As part of our current studies on the development of new routes in heterocyclic synthesis, [10], [11], [12], [13] and [14] in this letter, we wish to report that pyridines 1 undergo a smooth reaction with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates 2 in the presence of isocyanates 3 in dry dichloromethane at ambient temperature to produce functionalized 2-oxo-1,9a-dihydro-2H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidines 4 in 85–98% yields (Scheme 1). ... The 1 H NMR spectrum of 4a exhibited 15 two single ...
