Abstract
4-R'-5-Q-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-ones (I), where R' is hydrogen or methyl and Q is hydroxymethyl, 1-hydroxyethyl alkanoyloxymethyl or 1-alkanoyloxyethyl, are produced by first reacting 4-R'-5-acetyl(or n-propanoyl)-6-[2-(di-lower-alkylamino]-2(1H)-pyridinone [III] with hydroxylamine or salt thereof to produce 4-R'-5-Q'-1,6-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one-6-oxide (II), where R' is defined as above and Q' is methyl or ethyl; next reacting II with an alkanoic anhydride to produce I where Q is alkanoyloxymethyl or 1-alkanoyloxyethyl; and, then hydrolyzing said alkanoyloxymethyl or -ethyl compound to produce I where Q is hydroxymethyl or 1-hydroxyethyl. Also shown is the cardiotonic use of II and I where Q is hydroxymethyl, 1-hydroxyethyl or alkanoyloxymethyl.
