“…In order to obtain new oxazinohydroquinolines, and to establish their structure, in this work we carried out the oxidation of 4,4,6-trimethyl-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1,2-diones 9 and their hydrogenated analogs, 4,4,6-trimethyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1,2-diones 8, with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. -e) were prepared according to the Stolle method, 40 which we had previously modified 41,42 by reacting the hydrochlorides of the corresponding starting substituted hydroquinolines with oxalyl chloride (without using Lewis acids as catalysts, which are required for cyclization in the classical version of the reaction). In a previous paper 38 we developed optimal conditions for the selective oxidation of pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1,2-dione 5 in THF, leading to the formation of 1,3-oxazinoquinolinedione 6.…”
