摘要:
2-(2-Furyl)-1(3)H-imidazo[4,5-f]quinoline was synthesized by the Weidenhagen reaction of quinoline-5,6-diamine with furfural. Its alkylation with methyl iodide in the system KOH-DMSO gave two isomeric N-methyl derivatives, 2-(2-furyl)-1-methyl-1H- and 2-(2-furyl)-3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-f]quinolines, the latter prevailing. 2-(2-Furyl)-3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-f] quinoline was brought into electrophilic substitution reactions: bromination, nitration, formylation, acylation, sulfonation. Depending on the reaction conditions, electrophilic attack could be directed at both furan ring and quinoline fragment.
