Abstract
Reactions of 3-acetyl-(benzoyl-) substituted 7,8-difluoro-5-oxo-5,9a-dihydropyrazolo[1,5- a ]quinoline-4-carboxylates 1a,b with electrophilic reagents have been studied and reaction of 1a with methyl iodide in dry DMF in the presence of potassium carbonate results in the corresponding 5-methoxy derivative 2, in which the acetyl group at C–3 is easily substituted by a bromine atom. Treatment of 1a,b with bromine causes ipso -substitution of the acetyl (benzoyl) group accompanied by addition of the second bromine atom at position 4; a similar ipso -substitution of the acetyl group at C-3 has been observed on protonation of 1a with sulfuric acid.
