An efficient single-step approach toward the synthesis of 2-alkylquinolines is described. Through a Lewis acid mediated [3 + 3] annulation reaction between 3-ethoxycyclobutanones and aromatic amines, a variety of multisubstituted 2-alkylquinoline derivatives were prepared regioselectively at room temperature.
Metal-catalyzed directC(sp(3))-H bond amination of 2-alkyl azaarenes with N=N double bonds has been developed, which expands the scope of C(sp(3))-H bond activation reactions and provides a new access to medicinally important azaarene derivatives.
