Catalyst-free diastereoselective synthesis of 2-methyl-4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline derivatives in water
摘要:
A diastereoselective synthesis of 2-methyl-4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline derivatives was achieved through the reaction of aromatic amines and tert-enamides in water under reflux conditions. The desired products could be obtained in moderate to excellent yields utilizing water as solvent without any catalyst or additive. (C) 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
