P. Sanna et al., Triazolo[4,5-f]quinolines derived from 5-amino-(1H- and 2-methyl-2H)-benzotriazoles with beta-diketones and 3-buten-2-one, HETEROCYCLE, 51(9), 1999, pp. 2171-2181
5-Aminobenzotriazole and its derivatives are good substrates for reactions
with beta-diketones and 3-buten-2-one to produce angular triazolo[4,5-f]qui
nolines. Interesting isomeric compounds were found in the case of reaction
with non-symmetrical diketones, whereas an unusual cyclization takes place
when 2-acetylcyclopentanone was used.
