Seven new 5,7-disubstituted oxine derivatives have been synthesized via a Mannich reaction between a sec. amine (e.g. piperidine, pyrrolidine, morpholine, or dibenzylamine,) and 5-cyano or 5-azidomethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline, which were respectively obtained by nucleophilic displacement of 5-chloromethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline by cyanide or azide anions. In all cases, a single product was isolated in medium to fair yield and characterized on the basis of 1 H and 13 C-NMR, MS and IR spectrometric data. The X-ray structure of the product obtained from 5-cyanomethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline and piperidine is also reported.
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.
