Abstract
The title aldehyde 1 in the presence of ammonia gives the pyridine derivatives 9‐11 respectively with acetylacetone, diethyl malonate and ethyl cyanoacetate, and ethyl (or methyl)‐l‐benzopyrano[4,3‐b]pyri‐dine‐3‐carboxylate 22 (or 23) with ethyl (or methyl) acetoacetate. Acetylacetone pretreated with ammonia condenses with 1 giving the fused pyridine 24. Ammonia converts the ester 6 to the pyridine 13 or 14. Chromic acid oxidation of 22 and 23 affords the coumarinopyridines 25 and 26, respectively.
