“…4,5 As a consequence, methods for their synthesis have attracted a significant amount of attention. 2, [6][7][8][9][10][11] In the past, most of the focus of synthesis of compounds with these nitrogenous heterocyclic rings as core frameworks has been on the use of chemical methods. For example, procedures of Conrad-Limpachs, 12 Pfitzinger, 13 Friedländer, 14 Skraup 15,16 and Doebner-Miller 17,18 reactions have been developed for synthesis of quinoline-containing compounds, whereas reduction of nitrogenous heterocyclic ring of the respective quinoline derivative, formation of single or multiple carbon-carbon bonds, and nitrogenous heterocyclic ring contraction and expansion have been common strategies for synthesis of tetrahydroquinoline-containing compounds.…”
