Reissert Compounds

The reactions of isoquinoline and phthalazine Reissert compounds with phthalaldehydic acids and their derivatives have been investigated as a means of synthesizing 1-(3-phthalidyl)isoquinolines. Of a variety of conditions tried those involving phase transfer were found, in general, to be the most suitable. The products, which are analogues of the convulsant alkaloid bicuculline, showed weak central nervous system depressant activity.

Photochemical Rearrangement

The synthetic potential for the photolysis of alkylsuccinimides to give 6-substituted hexahydroazepine-2,5-diones is investigated. The reaction generally proceeds poorly, particularly when phenyl, cyano or ethoxycarbonyl groups are present. Fragmentation and intramolecular disproportionation reactions are identified as major side reactions.
