Abstract

An efficient methodology for the synthesis of highly diverse 4-aminoquinoline derivatives from activated alkynes and 2-aminobenzonitriles mediated by Lewis acid is described. The reaction proceeds via sequential aza-Michael addition/intramolecular annulation to afford highly substituted 4-aminoquinolines in good yields. The reaction is operationally simple and has high atom-economy with broad substrate scope. The post synthetic application of the reaction provides 4H-benzo[de][1,6]naphthyridines.
