Abstract
6-Alkoxy(aroxy)methylphenanthridines were obtained from 6-chloromethylphenanthridine. The basicities of the former are considerably lower than the basicity of 6-methylphenanthridine and 0.5 pK a unit higher than the basicity of 6-chloromethylphenanthridine. The ease of quaternization of the compounds obtained is determined by the magnitude of the basicity.
