Synthesis of substituted 1,2-dihydroquinolines and quinolines from aromatic amines and alkynes by gold(I)-catalyzed tandem hydroamination-hydroarylation under microwave-assisted conditions

Org Lett. 2007 Jul 5;9(14):2645-8. doi: 10.1021/ol070814l. Epub 2007 Jun 12.

Abstract

A method to efficiently prepare substituted 1,2-dihydroquinolines and quinolines by Au(I)-catalyzed tandem hydroamination-hydroarylation under microwave irradiation was developed. This method requires short reaction time (10-70 min) and has a broad substrate scope.
