A series of novel 4-subtituted amino-2-methylquinolines (3a-3o) were readily synthesized via the reaction of 4-chloro-2-methylquinoline with amines catalyzed by p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsoH) at 120 degrees C for 1 h under microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) condition. The yields of products 3a-3o were in range of 55-89%. This approach has advantages such as higher yield, shorter reaction time, lower costs, more convenience, and higher efficiency compared to the conventional method. The structures of the products were characterized by using H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR and HRMS. The reactivity of different amines was discussed.

Ruthenium(II)‐catalyzed synthesis of π‐conjugated fused imidazo[1,5‐a]quinolin‐2‐ium derivatives have been achieved via C−H activation of quinoline‐functionalized NHC (NHC=N‐heterocyclic carbene) and oxidative coupling with internal alkynes. The reaction occurred with high efficiency, broad substrate scope, tolerates a wide range of functional groups and utilized into a gram‐scale. Synthetic applications of the coupled product have been exemplified in the late‐stage derivatization of various highly functionalized scaffolds. Moreover, most of the annulated products exhibit intense fluorescence and have potential applications in optoelectronic devices. Mechanistic studies have provided insights into the spectroscopic characterization of key five‐membered ruthenacycle intermediate and Ru(0) sandwich species. Based on several control experiments, deuterium‐kinetic isotope effect, and thermodynamic activation parameters the mechanistic finding demonstrated that fused imidazo‐[1,5‐a]quinolin‐2‐ium C(2)−H bond cleavage is the rate‐determining step and ruling out the possibility of reductive elimination for controlling the rate of reaction.
