Carbocatalytic Cascade Synthesis of Polysubstituted Quinolines from Aldehydes and 2-Vinyl Anilines

Oxidized active carbon (oAC) catalyses the formation of polysubstituted quinolines from o-vinyl anilines and aldehydes. The reaction proceeds in a cascade manner through condensation, electrocyclization and dehydrogenation, and gives access to a wide range of quinolines with alkyl and/or aryl substituents as demonstrated with 40 examples. The metal-free catalytic procedure allows a heterogeneous protocol for the synthesis of various polysubstituted quinolines. The mechanistic studies imply that both the acid and quinoidic groups in oAC are integral for the catalytic manifold. (Figure presented.).

Unexpected Annulation between 2-Aminobenzyl Alcohols and Benzaldehydes in the Presence of DMSO: Regioselective Synthesis of Substituted Quinolines

An unexpected annulation among 2-aminobenzyl alcohols, benzaldehydes, and DMSO to quinolines has been disclosed. For the reported annulation between 2-aminobenzyl alcohols and benzaldehydes, the change of the solvent from toluene to DMSO led to the change of the product from the diheteroatomic cyclic benzoxazines to monoheteroatomic cyclic quinolines. This annulation can be used to synthesize regioselectively different substituted quinolines by the choice of different 2-amino alcohols, aldehydes, and sulfoxides as substrates. Interestingly, introducing substituent groups to the α-position of sulfoxides resulted in the interchange of the positions between benzaldehydes and sulfoxides in the product quinolines. On the basis of the control experiments and literatures, a plausible mechanism for this annulation was proposed.

Synthesis method for 2-position substituted polysubstituted quinoline

To the method, 2 ortho-amine aryl alcohol, aryl formaldehyde and sulfoxide are subjected to one-pot reaction in an alkali-containing toluene solution system under an oxygen-containing atmosphere, and a 1 - 2-position substituted polysubstituted quinoline

Divergent Syntheses of Indoles and Quinolines Involving N1-C2-C3 Bond Formation through Two Distinct Pd Catalyses

Pd-catalyzed annulative couplings of 2-alkenylanilines with aldehydes using alcohols as both the solvent and hydrogen source have been developed. These domino processes allow divergent syntheses of two significant N-heterocycles, indoles and quinolines, from the same substrate by tuning reaction parameters, which seems to invoke two distinct mechanisms. The nature of the ligand and alcoholic solvent had a profound influence on the selectivity and efficiency of these protocols. Particularly noteworthy is that indole formation was achieved by overcoming two significant challenges, regioselective hydropalladation of alkenes and subsequent reactions between the resulting Csp3-Pd species and less reactive imines.

A nickel-catalyzed: Anti -carbometallative cyclization of alkyne-azides with organoboronic acids: Synthesis of 2,3-diarylquinolines

An anti-carbonickelative cyclization via reversible alkenylnickel E/Z isomerization of 2-azido phenyl propargyl alcohols with aryl boronic acids is achieved using Ni(acac)2 as the catalyst to access 2,3-diaryl quinolines. It represents a rare example of trapping the vinyl metal intermediate with a nitrogen center, a non-carbon center electrophile.

Carbolithiation of o-amino-(E)-stilbenes: Diastereoselective electrophile substitution with applications to quinoline synthesis

(Chemical Equation Presented) A regioselective carbolithiation of o-amino-(E)-stilbenes has been achieved with a series of alkyllithiums when THF is employed as the reaction solvent. The use of other solvents, such as diethyl ether or hydrocarbons, leads to a pronounced loss in regioselectivity. Moreover, high levels of diastereoselectivity have been obtained following reaction of the lithiated intermediate in THF with different electrophiles such as MeOD, CO2, and Bu3SnCl. It was shown that diastereoselectivity was influenced by the orthoamino substituent and the alkyllithium utilized for carbolithiation with N-Boc substituent and t-BuLi proving optimal. In the case of carbolithiated intermediate 3a, obtained from the reaction of N-Boc substituted stilbene with t-BuLi, 1H and 13C NMR analysis revealed predominantly one diastereoisomer which was stable at room temperature. Application of the carbolithiation/electrophile reaction methodology to the synthesis of six-membered quinoline ring systems is demonstrated with substituted 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2-ones, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines, 1,4-dihydroquinolines, and quinolines all prepared by a common cascade route.
