Abstract

Substituted 3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)indolizines III-X were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the ylide II, generated from 5-nitro-2-furfurylpyridinium bromide (I), with acrylonitrile, ethyl acrylate, diethyl maleate, benzalacetophenone, ethyl 3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylate, (5-nitro-2-furfurylidene)acetophenone, β-nitrostyrene and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. The structure of these products is discussed on the basis of their 1H NMR and mass spectra.
