Abstract

8-Alkyl and alkenyl-10-hydroxy-5H[1]benzopyranopyridines are prepared by dehydrogenation of the corresponding N-benzyl or N-hydrogen-8-alkyl or alkenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5H[1]benzopyranopyridines in a high boiling solvent in the presence of a noble metal dehydrogenation catalyst. Alkyl derivatives of 5-11 carbon atoms are particularly useful. Also the O-acetyl derivatives are very useful. The compounds are central nervous system depressants and animal polyphagic agents.
