Abstract:A comprehensive kinetic investigation of reactions occurring in the formation of styryl‐quinolines has been conducted. Specific rate data such as rate equations, rate constants, and thermodynamic activation values have been determined and utilized in a study of which factors are of greatest importance in the reactions forming 2‐styrylquinolines. A mechanism has been proposed for the condensation reaction which agrees with rate relationships found. Gas‐liquid partition chromatography was used to follow the kine… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
