Abstract

A convenient and efficient procedure for the synthesis of quinolines and dihydroquinolines has been developed by a simple one-pot reaction of anilines with alkyl vinyl ketones on the surface of silica gel impregnated with indium (III) chloride under microwave irradiation without any solvent.
