Description

Condensation of 3-methyl-2-azafluorene with 2-formylfluorene results in the formation of a compound containing a polyconjugated system and two acidic CH centers, namely, 1-(fluoren-2-yl)-2-(2-azafluoren-3-yl)ethene. The conversions of this compound upon treatment with alkali have been studied by electronic absorption spectroscopy. The methyl iodide derivative of this base was used as an intermediate in the preparation of a pseudo-azulene, 1-(fluoren-2-yl)-2-(2H,2-methylindeno[2,3-c]pyridine)ethene
