Substituted 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimido[5,4-c]cinnolines (6a-d) have
been synthesised from the corresponding arylhydrazino(cyano)acetamide
s (1a-d). The hydrazino derivatives (5a-d) prepared from 1a-d on reflu
xing in triethylorthoformate undergo smooth cyclization to yield the e
xpected 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]pyrimido[5,4-c]cinnolines (6a-d). The str
ucture of all the compounds have been established on the basis of thei
r elemental analysis and spectral data.
