Abstract

A series of 1,6-naphthyridines and pyrano[3,2-c]pyridines were selectively synthesized via microwave-assisted reactions controlled by the nature of the solvent. This has resulted in an efficient and promising synthetic method for constructing the 1,6-naphthyridine and pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine skeletons.
