Deskripsi

A simple general synthesis of 1-aryl-6-azaisocytosine-5-carbonitriles <b>4</b> is described. This method is based on coupling diazonium salts with cyanoacetylcyanamide <b>2</b> and then cyclization of the formed 2-arylhydrazono-2-cyanoacetylcyanamides <b>3</b>. The 6-azaisocytosines <b>4</b> were studied with respect to tautomeric equilibrium and the transformation of functional groups, and used in the synthesis of the condensed heterocyclic compounds: Purine isosteric imidazo[2,1-<i>c</i>]-[1,2,4]triazine <b>8</b> and the 1,2,4-triazino[2,3-<i>a</i>]quinazolines <b>9</b>&#8722;<b>12</b>.
