A convenient synthesis of Carbocyclic fused Thieno [2,3-b] Pyridines and Carbocyclic fused IH-Pyrazolo [3,4-b] Pyridines

Abstract

A synthesis of Carbocyclic fused thieno [2,3-b] pyridines and carbocyclic fused 1H- pyrazolo [3,4-b] pyridines utilizing car-bocyclic fused 2(lh)-pyridinethiones as starting components is described. The structures of the products were assigned and confirmed on the basis of their elemental analysis and spectral data.
