Abstract
A series of regioisomers of pyrazolyl-substituted quinolines has been synthesized through the simple condensation reaction between hydrazinylquinolines with aliphatic 1,3-diketones with InCl3 as a catalyst under microwave irradiation. This method produces pure products in good yield in a rapid manner compared to conventional procedures and withneat reaction condition. The approach has the advantages of operational simplicity and increased safety for a shortened synthesis of pyrazolyl-substituted quinolines.
