Bromoquinolines (2-bromoquinoline - 8-bromoquinoline and 5-bromo-3-methoxyquinoline) and 2-aminophenylboronic acid hydrochloride were subjected to Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling conditions resulting in formation of the desired biaryl systems in good yields. The resulting biaryls were then subjected to palladium catalyzed C-H activation/C-N bond formation utilizing PdCl2(dppf). The reactions revealed large differences in reactivity depending on the attachment point for the 2-aminophenyl group on the quinoline. The variation in the reactivity was rationalized based on the electron distribution around the quinoline ring-system. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
