Abstract |
Quinolines are common building blocks found in biologically and pharmacologically active compounds. Particularly, 2-substituted quinolines are of importance since they display interesting biological activities and been utilized as key building blocks in materials science. One of the conventional methods for the synthesis of 2-arylquinolines involves the intramolecular cyclization of (E)-2-aminochalcones. However, this method generally requires additional steps to convert (E)-alkene into (Z)-isomer via either photoisomerisation or the use of a stoichiometric amount of chemical reagents, such as iodine and selenium, in the presence of a base.
We hypothesized that 2-arylquinolines could be prepared from 2-aminochalcones in the presence of iodide as a nucleophilic catalyst. Conjugate addition of iodide to 2-aminochalcones would lead to β-iodoketones, which undergo intramolecular imine formation affording dihydroquinoline intermediates. Following elimination of iodide provided the desired 2-arylquinolines. Based on this hypothesis, we developed a novel method for 2-arylquinolines starting from 2-aminochalcones in the presence of a catalytic amount of Iodide.
Furthermore, we could expand this reaction in water as a reaction media. Since water is the unique the cheapest abundant solvent available from nature, non-toxic to the environment, easy product isolation by simple phase separation, the development of novel on-water reaction has received considerable attentions from the chemical society. Thus, we further extended this protocol for the on-water synthesis of quinolines from 2-aminostyryl ketones. By using water-insoluble properties of 2-aminochalcone and 2-arylquinoline, the quinoline products could be easily isolated from the reaction mixture. |
