Facile and Efficient Synthesis of 2-Aminoquinoline-3-carboxylic Acid Derivatives via Reductive Cyclization of Nitro and Cyano Groups Induced by Low-valent Titanium
A highly efficient synthesis of structurally diverse ortho-acylphenol–diindolylmethane hybrids 3 using carboxylic acid-activated chromones as versatile synthetic building blocks is reported here for the first time, through 1,4-nucleophilic addition and followed by a decarboxylation and pyrone ring opening reaction process.
A Schiff base-modified silver catalyst was developed for the direct carboxylation of terminal alkynes with CO2, enabling the efficient synthesis of valuable alkynyl carboxylic acids.
