The switchable synthesis of 3-non, 3-mono, 3,3′-disubstituted 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-ones was developed through a redox-neutral hydride-transfer/N-dealkylation/N-acylation strategy from o-aminobenzaldehyde with 4-hydroxycoumarin, and Meldrum’s acid, resp. The unprecedented strategy for the synthesis of 3,3′-highly functionalized 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one has been realized with the in situ utilization of the released HCHO via the o-QM involved Michael addition In addition, the synthetic utility of this protocol has been well illustrated via concise synthesis of CYP11B2 inhibitor. In addition to this study using 2-Pyridinylboronic acid, there are many other studies that have used 2-Pyridinylboronic acid(cas: 197958-29-5Reference of 2-Pyridinylboronic acid) was used in this study.
2-Pyridinylboronic acid(cas: 197958-29-5) belongs to pyridine. Pyridine is very deactivated towards electrophilic substitution with respect to benzene. For this reason classical formylation, using methods such as the Gattermann or Vilsmeier reactions, are not generally successful. Reference of 2-Pyridinylboronic acid
