Fe(III)-MediatedOxidative [5 + 1] Cyclization forthe Highly Site-Selective Synthesis of Functionalized Quinoline Derivatives

Abstract We describe a method for the construction of highly functionalized quinoline derivatives from enaminones via an oxidative [5 + 1] cyclization. A plausible mechanism may involve a cascade sequence including single-electron transfer (SET), radical Michael addition, elimina...
