Rb. Miller et al., A NEW RING-SYSTEM - 3-H-PYRAZOLO[3,4-H]ISOQUINOLINE - AN UNEXPECTED PRODUCT FROM DIAZOTIZATION OF AN AMINOISOQUINOLINE, Chemical communications, (24), 1996, pp. 2711-2712
Diazotization of 7-amino-5,8-dimethyl-6-thiophenylisoquinoline with so
dium nitrite in acetic acid gives a mixture of 6-thiaellipticine and e
thyl-4-thiophenyl-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-h]isoquinoline, a new heterocyclic r
ing system whose crystal structure is presented.
