The method of the synthesis of 2-substituted 5,5-dimethyl-5,6-dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones starting from 1-amino-3,3- dialkyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalene-2-carbonitriles and 3-chloro-3-oxopropanoate has been developed. It was found that 2-(5,5-dialkyl-4- oxo-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-2-yl)acetic acids are exposed spontaneous self-decarboxylation giving 5,5-dialkyl-2- methyl-5,6-dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones.2-(5,5-Dimethyl-4-oxo-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-2-yl)acetohydrazide was prepared by hydrazinolysis of ethyl 2-(5,5-dimethyl-4-oxo-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-2-yl)acetate. (E)-2-Styryl-5,5- dialkyl-5,6-dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones have been synthesized by condensation of 2-methyl-5,6- dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with aromatic aldehydes. Antitumoral and antibacterial properties of synthesized compounds have been also studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
