Transformation of some pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives into other di- and triheterocyclic systems

It was stated that three analogous ethyl 2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-5-carboxylates (7-9) react with hydrazine hydrate giving derivatives of the new heterocyclic system pyrido[2,3,4-ef]pyridazino[3,4-e]-1,2,4-triazepine (10-12), pyrido[3,4-d]pyridazine (16-18) and pentaazaphenalene (13-15). The latters were formed in low yields. The results of the preliminary pharmacological study of 2 of these compounds are reported.
