New alkyl 1,4-dihydropyridine and methyl quinoline derivatives were prepared from the reaction of 3-aminocrotononitrile with some aliphatic ketones, cinnamaldehyde and salicylaldehyde. The methyl function in some of methyl 1,4-dihydropyridine and methyl quinoline derivatives towards electrophilic reagents proved to be highly active under mild conditions.

Potassiophenylacetonitrile (2) reacts with 2-bromopyridine (1) and 2-chloroquinoline (4) via the SRN1 mechanism when the reactants are exposed to near-UV light in liquid NH3.Potassioacetonitrile (6) reacts similarly with 1 and 4 upon photostimulation; however, the photo-SRN1 reaction with 1 is accompanied by SNAr2 amination which becomes the major reaction in the dark or in the presence of di-tert-butyl nitroxide.Substrate 4 undergoes competing SNAr2 amination with amide ion to form 2-aminoquinoline (10) and SN(ANRORC) reactions with both amide ion and carban ion 6 to form 3-methylquinazoline (11) and 2-methyl-3-cyanoquinoline (12), respectively.Formation of 12 becomes the major pathway in reactions between 4 and 6 carried out in the dark. 4-Picolylpotassium (14) reacts with 1, 4, and 4-bromopyridinium chloride (16) under photostimulation to form the appropriate dihetarylmethanes, along with the corresponding amino heterocycles.Amination of 1, 4, and 16 predominates when these reactions are carried out in the dark.Ammonium thiophenoxide (20) undergoes a slow photo-SRN1 reaction with 1 but fails to produce the expected 2-quinolyl phenyl sulfide with 4 after 2 h of irradiation.Potassium salts of acetylene, phenylacetylene, and phthalimide do not react with 1 or 4 after 2 h of exposure to near-UV light.

Quinoline derivatives are formed in fair to good yields when acetonitrile solutions of o-vinylthioanilides are irradiated with Pyrex-filtered light.The transformation is a singlet reaction and involves intramolecular cycloaddition of the thioamide, yielding unstable thietanes, as the initial step.In the case of o-(1-trans-propenyl)thioacetanilide (2a) the corresponding thietane has been detected by 1H NMR spectroscopy by irradiating a toluene solution of the compound at -78 deg C.The quantum yield of quinoline formation from 2a appeared to be solvent dependent.Concomitant with quinoline formation, triplet cis-trans isomerization of the vinyl moiety takes place.In the case of 2a the quantum yield for trans -> cis isomerization is 0.506.A variable-temperature 1H NMR study of 2,3-dimethylquinoline in toluene solution has also been performed.For the 2,3-dimethylquinoline-toluene complex the enthalpy and entropy of formation are -1.03 +/- 0.10 kcal/mol and -3.7 +/- 0.2 gibbs/mol, respectively.
