Abstract

The Schiff base from o-bromobenzaldehyde and allylamine was allowed to react with homophthalic anhydride to form an isoquinolone. Reaction of the same Schiff base with isatoic anhydride led to a quinazolone. Generation of a free radical from the bromoaryl moiety under the influence of tributyltin hydride converted the isoquinolone and the quinazolone to tetracyclic systems. This approach can lead to a convenient synthesis of alkaloids of the benzophenanthridine and protoberberine families.
