Abstract
The intramolecular cyclisations of mesoionic intermediates formed by heating N-alkynoyl-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids [alkylnoyl side chains: RC C-(CH2) 2CO, where n= 3 or 4] with acetic anhydride, have been investigated. The final products are octahydropentaleno [2, 3-a] isoquinolines and hexahydroindeno [2, 3-a] isoquinolines respectively, formed by the expulsion of carbon dioxide from the initial adducts. The ...
