Abstract
The catalytic potential of different metal Lewis acids has been assessed for the one-pot tandem Friedlander annulation and Knoevenagel condensation involving 2-aminobenzophenone, ethyl acetoacetate, and benzaldehyde to form 2-styryl quinoline under solvent free conditions. While various metal Lewis acids were effective in promoting the Friedlander annulation step, In(OTf)3 was the only effective catalyst for the subsequent Knoevenagel condensation reaction suggesting In(OTf)3 as the stand-alone catalyst for the tandem Friedlander–Knoevenagel reaction to form 2-styryl quinolines. The protocol is compatible with different variations of aromatic/hetero-aromatic aldehydes and α,β unsaturated aromatic aldehydes giving highly functionalized 2-aryl/heteroaryl vinyl quinolines. The catalyst can be recovered and reused to afford the desired product in very good to excellent yields.
