The α-alkylation of deprotonated N-aryl-α-aminonitriles with α-bromoesters furnishes intermediates that can be cyclized to 4-quinolones upon microwave irradiation. Alternatively, base-induced dehydrocyanation of the alkylation products furnishes enaminoesters, which can, for example, be converted into quinoline-3-carboxylates.
