In this study a one step method for the preparation of substituted anilides of quinoline-2-carboxylic acid was developed. This efficient innovative approach is based on the direct reaction of an acid or ester with substituted anilines using microwave irradiation. The optimized method was used for the synthesis of a series of eighteen substituted quinoline-2-carboxanilides. The molecular structu...

In the title compound, [Cu(C(34)H(24)N(4)O(2)S(2))] or [Cu(bqdapte)], where H(2)bqdapte is 1,2-{bis-[2-(quinoline-2-carboxamido)-phen-yl]sulfan-yl}ethane, the Cu(II) ion is coordinated to the dianionic hexa-dentate bqdapte(2-) ligand by two amide and two quinoline N atoms and two thio-ether S atoms. In the observed conformation of the hexa-dentate ligand, the quinoline rings attain positions re...

A convenient synthesis of 2,4-unsubstituted quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters via a domino process is described. The synthesis employs arylmethyl azides as the precursor which undergoes an acid-promoted rearrangement to give an N-aryl iminium ion. Following the addition with ethyl 3-ethoxyacrylate, intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution, elimination and subsequent oxidation, ...

In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming double-stranded chains propagating along [011]. These chains are linked via π-π inter-actions involving inversion-related quinoline rings; the shortest centroid-centroid distance is 3.6596 (17) Å.

The application of quinoline-based compounds for the treatment of malaria infections is hampered by drug resistance. Drug resistance has led to the combination of quinolines with other classes of antimalarials resulting in enhanced therapeutic outcomes. However, the combination of antimalarials is limited by drug-drug interactions. In order to overcome the aforementioned factors, several resear...

In the title compound, C(28)H(20)Cl(2)N(2)O(2), the 2-chloro-quinoline and 6-chloro-quinoline ring systems are twisted slightly, making a dihedral angle of 4.05 (3)°. The dihedral angle between the 2-quinoline ring system and the phenyl ring attached to it is 74.43 (5)°. In the crystal structure, a pair of inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules, forming centrosymmetric dime...
