Abstract

A microwave-assisted solid acid-catalyzed synthesis of quinolines from anilines and cinnamaldehydes is described. Use of montmorillonite K-10 results in a one-pot process; the cyclization and oxidation steps readily take place in a domino approach. Reactions were completed in a matter of minutes and provided excellent yields. The efficient and ecofriendly catalyst and the convenience of the product isolation make this process an attractive ...
