Abstract

An efficient single-step approach toward the synthesis of 2-alkylquinolines is described. Through a Lewis acid mediated [3+ 3] annulation reaction between 3-ethoxycyclobutanones and aromatic amines, a variety of multisubstituted 2-alkylquinoline derivatives were prepared regioselectively at room temperature.
