Synthesis of new heterocyclic systems fused at pyrazolo[3,4-c]-2,7-naphthyridine core

Efficient syntheses of new heterocyclic systems comprising pyrimido[1',2':1,5]pyrazolo[3,4-c]-2,7-naphthyridine, pyrazolo[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-a]-2,7-naphthyridine and pyrazolo[3,4-c]tetrazolo[5,1-a]-2,7-naphthyridine cores were performed in two simple steps. In the first step, pyrazole ring was fused at the 2-chloro-3-cyanopyridine moiety by treatment with hydrazine. In the second step, pyrimidine part was fused at the thus formed 3-aminopyrazole moiety by heterocyclization with acetylacetone.
