Solvent-free synthesis of isoindolo[2,1-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline and pyrazolo[5',1':2,3]pyrimido[6,1-a]isoindol derivatives through a one-pot three-component reaction.

Some 5-substituted 3-aminopyrazoles were used for the synthesis of isoindolo[2,1-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline and pyrazolo[5',1':2,3]pyrimido[6,1-a]isoindol derivatives via a mild and efficient one-pot three-component reaction with 2-formylbenzoic acid and different CH-acids under solvent-free condition.
