Abstract

A novel and efficient protocol for the generation of substituted pyridinols and pyrido[1,2-a]-fused 1,3-diazaheterocycles from primary amine or 1,n-diamine, nitro ketene dithioacetal [1,l-bis(methylthio)-2-nitroethene] and dibenzylideneacetone as starting materials in a one-pot process combining a Michael addition ­reaction and nucleophilic addition under mild condition in high yield has been developed.

A solution of l,l-bis(methylthio)-2-nitroethene (0.165 g, 1 mmol) and 1,2-ethanediamine (0.06 g, 1 mmol) in MeCN (5 mL) was magnetically stirred for 4 h at reflux. Then a solution of dibenzylideneacetone (0.23 g, 1 mmol) in MeCN (3 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 4 h. After completion of the reaction, the mixture was filtered and the precipitate was washed with cold MeCN (4 mL) to afford the pure product 3a as a white powder; mp 225 ˚C (dec.), yield: 0.276 g, 76%.
