In high energy hadronic collisions, a scalar or pseudoscalar Higgs boson, {Phi}=H, A, can be efficiently produced via gluon fusion, which is mediated by heavy quark loops. In this paper, we consider double real emission corrections to {Phi}=A production, which lead to a Higgs plus two-jet final state, at order {alpha}{sub s}{sup 4}. Full quark mass effects are considered in the calculation of scattering amplitudes for the CP-odd Higgs boson A, as induced by quark triangle-, box-, and pentagon-diagrams. They complement the analogous results for a CP-even Higgs boson H in Ref. [1]. Interference effects between loops with top and bottom quarks as well as between CP-even and CP-odd couplings of the heavy quarks are fully taken into account.
