Studies with Polyfunctionally Substituted Heteroaromatics: The Reaction of Heterocyclic Enaminonitriles with α‐β‐Unsaturated Nitriles

5‐Amino‐4‐cyano‐3‐phenylpyrazole ( 1 ) reacts with cinnamonitriles ( 2 ) to yield the pyrazolo[1,5‐ a ]pyrimidines ( 3 ). Also, 5‐amino‐4‐cyano‐1‐phenylpyrazole ( 4 ) reacts with cinnamonitriles ( 2 ) to yield the pyrazolo[3,4‐ b ]pyridine derivatives ( 5 ). In contrast to this reaction, enaminothiophene ( 6 ) reacts with cinnamonitriles ( 2 ) to yield compound ( 7 ) not ( 8 ). The enaminopyrane ( 9 ) reacts with cinnamonitriles ( 2 ) to yield ( 10 ). Finally we have attempted to add cinnamonitriles ( 2 ) to thiopyrane ( 13 ); only rearrangement and aromatization product ( 14 ) was isolated.
