The synthesis of a series of biquinazoline-2,2'-diones starting from o-nitrobenzaldehydes, anilines, and triphosgene is presented. This general approach features a novel and easy way for access to the target products. The mechanistic course of the reaction suggests the involvement of reduction, coupling, and cyclization by one-pot. These compounds were also investigated in vitro for anticancer activity, and some were found to have good anticancer activity.
o-Nitrobenzylidene Compounds. Part 3. Formation of 4-Arylamino-3-methoxycinnoline 1-Oxides from N-o-Nitrobenzylideneanilines, Cyanide Ion, and Methanol: the Intermediacy of 2-Aryl-3-cyano-2H-indazole 1-Oxides

The N-o-nitrobenzylidene derivatives of variously substituted anilines (7) have been cyclised by potassium cyanide in methanol, to give 4-arylamino-3-methoxycinnoline 1-oxides (9), the structures of which have been confirmed by independent synthesis of one representative .These cinnoline oxides are the main products (sometimes the only isolated products) when the amine-derived ring in (7) is ortho-substituted; in other cases the cinnoline oxides are minor products formed along with 2-aryl-3-cyano-2H-indazoles (10).In the latter group of reactions, the primary cyclisation products are 2-aryl-3-cyano-2H-indazole 1-oxides (8): these have then either been reduced to the indazoles in the basic methanolic medium, or have undergone ring-opening and recyclisation to give the cinnoline oxides (9).In the other group, where indazole oxides (8) cannot usually be isolated, their intermediacy in cinnoline oxide formation remains a possibility, although other mechanistic pathways can be envisaged.Some 'borderline' cases are identified and discussed.
