An Aza-Diels–Alder Approach to Crowded Benzoquinolines
2016
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are promising candidate materials for the next generation of nanoscale electronics. Described herein is the synthesis of 2,4,6-substituted benzoquinolines, which constitute building blocks for nitrogen-doped GNRs. The presented facile and modular aza-Diels–Alder chemistry accommodates the installation of diverse functionalities at the crowded benzoquinolines’ 2 positions. Given the general utility of the benzoquinoline motif, these findings hold relevance not only for carbon-based electronics but also for a range of chemical disciplines.
