Abstract

A microwave-promoted and base-catalyzed synthesis of cycl [3.2. 2] azines is accomplished in water via a three-component reaction (3-CR) of 2-picoline, α-bromoacetophenone and alkyne. The extension of the methodology to the synthesis of steroidal and carbocyclic cycl [3.2. 2] azine is also reported.
