Reaktionsschritte

In Scheme I, a 9-fluorenone (A) is treated with sulfuric acid and aqueous sodium azide in a ring-expansion, or Schmidt, reaction to produce 6(5H)-phenanthridinone (B). Nitration of (B) produces 2-nitro-6(5H)-phenanthridinone (C) as a major product, which is then reduced by Fe, NH4Cl and DMF, or catalytic dehydrogenation, to produce 2-amino-6(5H)-phenanthridinone (D). In general, a compound falling within Formula II is prepared by modifying the parent molecule 6(5H)-Phenanthridinone. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,291,801 and 3,932,643; Taylor et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 78:5104-5108 (1956). The 2-nitro (Compound C)-and 2-amino (Compound D)-6(5H)-phenanthridinones are synthesized by a slight modification of procedures described in Andrievskii, et al., Chem. Heterocycl. Compds (English Transl.) 21:8, 924-931 (1985), and Migachev, et al. Chem. Heterocycl. Compds (English Transl.) 17:3, 394-397 (1981)
