Notes:
The reaction of the ninhydrin (1) with 1,2-bishydroxylamines 2a-c affords dihydroindeno[1,2-b]pyrazine N,N′-dioxides 5a-c. The intermediates hexahydro- and tetrahydroindeno[1,2-b]pyrazines 3a and 4c, which have been isolated, are easily transformed into 5a, c. Heating of 5b, c or keeping of 5b on alumina gives indeno[1,2-b]pyrazine N-oxides 6b, c, N,N′-dioxide 7c and indeno[1,2-b]pyrazine 8. Treatment of 5b with a solution of hydrochloric acid in H2O/MeOH leads to 6b, whereas treatment of 5b with KOH furnishes mono-N-oxides 6b, 9 and dioxide 7b. Compound 8 is prepared by deoxygenation of 6b with TiCl3. The reduction of 6b with NaBH4 yields alcohol 10 and the reaction of 6b with NH2OH/AcOH gives a mixture of isomeric oximes (E)-11 and (Z)-11.
