Abstract
Simple one-pot methods for the synthesis of polysubstituted quinolines and 3,3 ′-(arylmethylene) bis (1H-indoles) have been developed using a polyphosphoric acid-mediated alkynes hydrolysis strategy. Sequential addition of substituted alkynes to an o-nitro(o-aminophenyl)carbonyl compound under solvent-free conditions followed by cyclization in polyphosphoric acid afforded 15 diverse quinolines in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, a three-component reaction between aldehydes, acetylenes, and arylhydrazines provided a simple and rapid method for the synthesis of 3,3′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-indoles) from readily available reagents.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
