C. Franz et al., REACTION-PRODUCTS OF 1,3-INDANDIONE WITH HETEROAROMATIC CARBALDEHYDES- SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE AND NMR-INVESTIGATIONS, Heterocycles, 41(11), 1995, pp. 2527-2551
The synthesis of 1:1 condensation products from 1,3-indandione and var
ious heteroaromatic carbaldehydes is described. Employment of aldehyde
s derived from pi-deficient N-heteroaromatics was found to lead also t
o 2:1 adducts via Michael-addition of the Id-diketone to the initially
formed 1:1 condensation products. H-1 and C-13 nmr spectroscopic stud
ies of the products obtained and of known congeners are presented. The
structure of the 2:1 adduct resulting from reaction of 1,3-indandione
and 4-quinolinecarbaldehyde was determined by X ray analysis.
