Abstract
A novel and practical preparation of 2-pyridone-containing tricyclic alkaloid derivatives was developed. By regioselective intramolecular N- and C-acylation of 2-(4-aryl-2-pyridon-6-yl) benzoic acid, a pair of structural isomers 2-aryl pyrido [2,1-a] isoindole-4,6-diones and 4-aryl 1-methyl-1H-indeno [1,2-b] -pyridine-2,5-diones, as potential inhibitors of tumor cell proliferation, were prepared respectively.
