A method was developed for the synthesis of 1H-1,5,7-triazacyclopenta[c,d] phenalenes by the electrophilic amination of perimidines using the new sodium azide/PPA reagent system and a subsequent one-pot reaction with 1,3,5-triazines. A multicomponent variant of this reaction is possible in the case of 2,4,6-trimethyl- and 2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazines.
