Abstract: | Nitro Products of Antazoline and Bamipine and Their Meisenheimer Compounds with Acetone and Bases Under the conditions of the Vitali-Morin reaction, antazoline and bamipine are nitrated to yield 17 nitro compounds, namely 1a/2b, 1b/2d, 1c, 1d/2e, 1e, 1f, 1g/2g, 2a, 2c, 2f, 2h–2n . Of these 1b/2d, 1c, 1e–1g/2g, 2a, 2c, 2h–2l produce coloured products when treated with bases in acetone. The coloured products 3a/b, 4a/b, 5a/b and 7 are Meisenheimer cyclohexadienate and propenide salts. |
