Copper(I)- and gold(I)-catalyzed synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted quinoline derivatives from N-aryl-2-propynylamines
2.4-Disubstituted quinoline derivatives were obtained from N-aryl-2-propynylamines catalyzed by copper(I) and gold(I) complexes. The quinoline derivatives could also be obtained by the reaction of N-arylaldimines with terminal acetylenes via the formation of N-aryl-2-propynylamines.
