4- quinoline reaction with ethyl

If the Reissert compound from the reaction with ethyl chloroformate (224) is lithiated at C-2 and subsequently treated with benzaldehyde, the final product is the l//-oxazolo[3,4-a]quinolin-l-one (225) (73JHC99). 

Conra.d-Limpa.ch-KnorrSynthesis. When a P-keto ester is the carbonyl component of these pathways, two products are possible, and the regiochemistry can be optimized. Aniline reacts with ethyl acetoacetate below 100°C to form 3-anilinocrotonate (14), which is converted to 4-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline [607-67-0] by placing it in a preheated environment at 250°C. If the initial reaction takes place at 160°C, acetoacetanilide (15) forms and can be cyclized with concentrated sulfuric acid to 2-hydroxy-4-methylquinoline [607-66-9] (49). This example of kinetic vs thermodynamic control has been employed in the synthesis of many quinoline derivatives. They are useful as intermediates for the synthesis of chemotherapeutic agents (see Chemotherapeuticsanticancer). 

Triphenylethylene has been prepared by the reaction of phenylmagnesium bromide with benzyl benzoate, with desoxy-benzoin, or with ethyl pheaniylacetate, and by the reaction of diphenylketene-quinoline with benzaldehyde. The above procedure is an adaptation of that described by Hell and Wiegandt. ... 

A -acetyl groups attached to the aniline have been shown to withstand the Conrad-Limpach reaction. Phenols and alcohols also survived unless in proximity to a reactive center. Jaroszewski reported the formation of 64 by reaction of aniline 63 with ethyl acetoacetate (5). Cyclization under thermal conditions in paraffin gave a mixture of quinolone 65 and quinoline 66. 

Analogously to ynamines and o, /3-acetylenic ketones, 4-aminobut-3-yn-2-ones react with 1,3-dipoles (68HCA443 73HCA2427 92KGS867). The reaction of 4-dimethylaminobut-3-yn-2-one with diphenylketene follows a route of [2-1-21-cycloaddition (30°C, THF, 1 h) to give 2-acetyl-3-dimethylamino-4,4-diphenyl-cyclobut-2-en-l-one (377) in 15% yield. With ethyl azidoformate (30°C, THF, 3 h), the tiiazole 378 is formed in 82% yield, whereas with phenyl isocyanate, the quinoline 379 is the product (by a [2- -4] scheme) in 70% yield (68HCA443). 

On the basis of the reaction of alkyl radicals with a number of polycyclic aromatics, Szwarc and Binks calculated the relative selectivities of several radicals methyl, 1 (by definition) ethyl, 1.0 n-propyl, 1.0 trichloromethyl, 1.8. The relative reactivities of the three alkyl radicals toward aromatics therefore appears to be the same. On the other hand, quinoline (the only heterocyclic compound so far examined in reactions with alkyl radicals other than methyl) shows a steady increase in its reactivity toward methyl, ethyl, and n-propyl radicals. This would suggest that the nucleophilic character of the alkyl radicals increases in the order Me < Et < n-Pr, and that the selectivity of the radical as defined by Szwarc is not necessarily a measure of its polar character. 

Reaction of 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-3-methyl- 240 (R = Me), or a mixture of 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-3-aryl-57/-pyrido[l,2,3-dfe]-l,4-benzoxazin-5-ones 240 (R = Ar) and (8-aroylmethoxy)quinolin-2(l//)-ones 241 (R = Ar) with ethyl 2-(bromomethyl)acrylate in the presence of activated Zn and hydroquinone gave 8-[(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-4-methylidene-5-oxo-2-furanyl)-methoxy]quinolin-2(l//)-ones (242) (97HCA1161). 6,7-Dihydro derivatives of 240 reacted similarly (00HCA349). 

Amino-6,6n,7,8,910-hexahydropyrido[2,l-c][l,4]benzoxazine was reacted with ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate in boiling benzene for 12-16 h, then the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was treated with cone. H2SO4 at 100°C to give tetracyclic 11-trifluoromethyl-l,2,3,4,4a,5,8,9-octahydropyrido[l, 2 4,5][l,4]oxazino[3,2-a]quinolin-9-one in 30% yield (OlMIPl). 

Attack by alkoxycarbonyl radicals, which are isoelectronic with but less nucleophilic than carbamoyl radicals, has been less well studied than acylation and amidation. An example is provided by the reaction of quinoline with ethyl pyruvate, hydrogen peroxide and an iron(II) salt (Scheme 213) (73TL645).
