Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

A one-pot method for obtaining novel thieno[3,2-c][1,7]naphthyridine derivatives based on the reaction of 3-amino-4-(thien-2-yl)pyridin-2(1H)-one with aromatic aldehydes in 80% ­phosphoric acid at 130 °C has been developed. The formation of the thieno[3,2-c][1,7]naphthyridine ring was due to the intermediate generation of the corresponding azomethine, which underwent intra­molecular cyclization with electrophilic attack of the β-carbon atom of the thiophene core under Pictet–Spengler conditions. The isolated 5,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-c][1,7]naphthyridin-4(3H)-ones underwent oxidative aromatization in air to give thieno[3,2-c][1,7]naphthyridin-6(7H)-ones. A two-step synthesis of thieno[3,2-c][1,7]naphthyridines involving the isolation of the intermediate imine did not lead to a significant increase in the product yield.
