Abstract
Herein, we disclose the synthesis of a variety of disubstituted fused quinoline, such as 4-methyl-2-arylbenzo[h]quinolines (3a–j), 1-methyl-3-arylbenzo[f]quinolines (3k–r), 1-methyl-3-arylnaphtho[2,3-f]quinolines (3s–x), and 2-aryl-5,7-dimethoxy-4-methylquinolines (4a–c), derivatives from the reaction of an aryl aldehyde with 1-naphthylamine (1a), 2-naphthylamine (1b), 2-aminoanthracene (1c) and 3,5-dimethoxyaniline (1d), respectively, at 80 °C in the presence of 30 mol% (±)-10-camphorsulfonic acid ((±)-CSA) using DMSO as the solvent-cum-reactant. DMSO molecules regioselectively incorporate three carbon atoms into the target molecule in this distinct reaction. The other advantages of the present protocol are that it can be performed under mild reaction conditions and does not require metal catalysts, additional additives or oxidants.
