Abstract

A facile and efficient synthesis of novel ethyl 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)-4-phenylquinoline-3-carboxylates and the corresponding acids through the one-pot three-step reaction of ethyl 2-(chloromethyl)-4-phenylquinoline-3-carboxylate with a series of salicylaldehydes is described. It allows an efficient and practical access to some 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)quinolines under transition-metal-free conditions.
