Abstract

AbstractAlkylation of 2‐hydroxy‐4H‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidin‐4‐one (1) was investigated under solid–liquid phase transfer catalysis conditions (PTC), using tetrabutylammonium bromide and potassium carbonate. The reaction with alkyl halides led to the formation of various 2‐alkoxy products, in fair yields. Reaction of compound 1 with epichlorohydrin and chloroacetonitrile, under the same PTC conditions, afforded novel O1,O3‐disubstituted glycerol and oxazolopyridopyrimidone betaine derivatives, respectively. Some 3‐halo‐, 3,3‐dihalo, and/or 2,3‐dihalopyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidines were also prepared using different halogenating agents at different reaction conditions. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
