“…Although extensive studies have been carried out in the past, selectivity clearly remains a common problem in radical bromination (Kikichi et al, 1998;Xu et al, 2003). In previous works, we have reported structure determination of some new quinoline derivatives (Benzerka et al, 2008;Ladraa et al, 2009;Ladraa et al, 2010). In this paper, we report the synthesis and structure determination of new compound, resulting from the radical bromination of 2-chloro-3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-6-methylquinoline, (I), under photocatalytic conditions.…”
