Lewis-acid-catalyzed benzylic reactions of 2-methylazaarenes with aldehydes have been investigated. Series of azaarene derivatives were afforded by this reaction. 2-(Pyridin-2-yl)ethanols with common substituents were formed through the LiNTf2-promoted aldol reaction for the first time. 2-Alkenylpyridines, exclusively in the form of the E isomers, were synthesized in the presence of LiNTf2 cooperated with H2NTf. In the presence of La(Pfb)3 as catalysis, 2-alkenylquinolines were obtained in high yields through the reactions between 2-methylquinolines and aldehydes under air.
