The reactivity of variably substituted 2-methyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones and 2-methyl-4H-pyrido[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one towards carbon and oxygen nucleophiles under microwave irradiation conditions was investigated. Optimization of the reaction conditions of oxazinones with carbon nucleophiles led to the synthesis of a series of 4-hydroxy-quinolin-2-ones and 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridin-2-ones in high yields, whereas reaction with a variety of alcohols proceeded smoothly to the formation of the corresponding N-acetyl-anthranilates and nicotinates.
