Abstract

The reaction of methyl 3-(arylamino)acrylates with hydrogen iodide gave 1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives at room temperature. This reaction proceeds efficiently in alcoholic solvent; bulky tert-butyl alcohol is the best solvent to give the 1,2-dihydroquinoline derivatives. It is particularly interesting that hydrogen iodide is the most efficient acid to achieve this reaction in tert-butyl alcohol. Various substituents at the phenyl ring are applicable. Compounds bearing meta-substituted phenyl ring with electron-donating group led to the corresponding 1,2-dihydroquinoline derivatives in good yields.

Key words

cyclization - hydrogen iodide - heterocycles - solvent effects - substituent effects
