An aza-Wittig-type reaction of iminophosphoranes 2 and 3, derived from 2-(2-azidophenyl)-l,2-dihydroperimidine and 2-(2-azidophenyl)perimidine, respectively, with isocyanates,

carbon dioxide, carbon disulfide and acyl chlorides provides 6-substituted quinazolino[3,4-a]perimidines 4-10.

tained in moderate yields. These rigorous reaction conditions sug- gest that the conversion of 3 to 7 involves initial acylation of the perimidine ring instead of formation of an imidoyl chloride by an aza Wittig reaction between the iminophosphorane moiety and the acyl chloride[']. Finally, intramolecular aza Wittig reaction between the carbonyl group of the amide function and the iminophos- phorane provides the cyclized product 7. Iminophosphorane 3 also reacts with carbon dioxide and carbon disulfide to give 9 and 10, respectively, in excellent yields (Scheme 3). Structural elucidation of compounds 4-10 has been accomplished on the basis of their analytical and spectral data.
