Abstract
A mild and efficient way for the synthesis of 3-phenylquinoline-2-ol derivatives via chemo-selective reaction of substituted O-nitrobenzaldehyde and ethyl-2-phenylacetate catalyzed by Fe/HCl is described. The new procedure has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high yields and one-pot manner with easy purification, and further characterised by NMR, FT-IR and HRMS spectral data.
