Abstract

8-Substituted quinolines are useful molecular frameworks for studying the interaction of various metals with organic functional groups. Information on the aldehyde decarbonylation reaction,'hydroacylation, 2 and metal insertion into carbon-hydrogen bonds3 has been obtained by using this class of compounds. We wanted a general method for placing groups such as vinyl, propenyl, and aldehyde, which engage in transition-metal-mediated ...
