Abstract

Michael reactions of isopropylidenemalononitrile with cyanothioacetamide (in the presence of 4-methoxyphenacyl bromide), cyclohexane-1,3-dione, and 4-hydroxycoumarin, gave 6-amino-2-(4-methoxy-benzoylmethylsulfanyl)-4,4-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile, 2-amino-4,4-dimethyl-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile, and 2-amino-4,4-dimethyl-5-oxo-4H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]-chromene-3-carbonitrile, respectively. In the reaction of isopropylidenemalononitrile with cyanoacetamide, only dimerization product of the former, 2-amino-4,6,6-trimethylcyclohexa-2,4-diene-1,1,3-tricarbonitrile, was isolated. Its structure was proved by X-ray analysis.
