Abstract
2-Methyl-4-aryl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-indeno[1,2-b]pyridine derivatives react with methyl iodide in an aprotic medium in the presence of alkaline agents to give C- and N-alkylation products, viz., 2,4a-dimethyl- and 1,2-dimethyl-4-aryl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydroindeno[1,2-b]pyridines, and with dimethyl sulfate or methyl p-tosylate under the same conditions to give N-methylation products.
