Abstract

The present invention comprises a method of synthesizing compounds having the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein: Z, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.8 are defined herein, which comprises the steps of PA1 (a) reacting a compound of the formula (II) ##STR2## wherein Q is a halogen, with an effective amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of an acid anhydride or an acid halide; to form a compound of the formula (III) ##STR3## b) transforming the 6-halo group of said compound (III) to an amine by displacement with ammonia to form compound (IV) ##STR4## (c) reacting said compound (IV) with a base to cause cyclization to a 6-halo intermediate, said 6-halo group is then transformed to an amine by displacement with an amine to form compound (V) ##STR5## (d) reacting said compound (V) with an effective amount of compound (VI) ##STR6## wherein X is a halogen; to form the compound of formula (I).
