Abstract

An acid-mediated and DMSO participant one-pot tandem synthesis of 3-substituted-1-aryl-1H-pyrazolo-[3,4- b]quinoline from readily available anilines and pyrazolones was achieved. This method enables regioselective construction of the valuable heterocycles under transition-metal and oxidant-free conditions in which DMSO acts as a methine source as well as solvent making this process an environmentally benign approach. A broad range of diversely substituted aryl amines and pyrazolines are successfully employed in this reaction to access a series of pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolones through a novel cascade mechanism. Furthermore, the application and mechanistic studies of the present methodology also demonstrated.
