An efficient and practical route to 7-azaindole framework has been developed by one-pot, three-component cyclocondensation of N-substituted 2-amino-4-cyanopyrroles, various aldehydes, and active methylene compounds in ethanol or acetic acid at reflux. Reactions involving tetronic acid, indane-1,3-dione, dimedone, and 5-phenylcyclohexane-1,3-dione gave carbocyclic fused 7-azaindoles, whereas Meldrum's acid, benzoylacetonitrile, and malononitrile resulted in the highly substituted 7-azaindole derivatives, making this strategy very useful in diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS).

A facile synthetic approach for the synthesis of 1,8-naphthyridine-4(1H)-one derivatives via a catalyst free and Pd-supported tandem amination sequence is developed and described. In a case of aliphatic amines reaction proceeds in a catalyst free mode, however anilines demand Pd-supported reaction conditions.
