ZARE2 1NASA Ames Research Center, MS 245-6, Moffett Field, California 94035–1000, USA 2Department of Chemistry, Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305–5080, USA *Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] (Received 16 November 2005; revision accepted 03 February 2006) Abstract–The polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycle (PANH) quinoline (C9H7N) was frozen at 20 K in interstellar ice analogs containing either pure water or water mixed with methanol or methane and exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Upon warming, the photolysis products were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and nanoscale liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. A suite of hydroxyquinolines, which were formed by the addition of oxygen atoms to quinoline, was observed as the primary product in all the ices. Quinoline N oxide was not formed, but five hydroxyquinoline isomers were produced with no clear dominance of one isomer. Reduction products, formed by hydrogen atom addition, were also created. Ices created at 20 K with H2O: quinoline ratios of 10:1 to 100:1 showed similar product distributions to those at 122 K, with no apparent temperature or concentration dependence. Increasing the UV dose led to a decrease in overall yield, indicating that quinoline and its products may be photo-destroyed. Methylquinolines were formed upon photolysis of the methanol- and methane-containing ices. In addition, possible methoxyquinolines or quinoline methylene alcohols were formed in the methanol- containing ice, while methylhydroxyquinolines were created in the methane-containing ice.

  • Quinoline & Isoquinoline
    Quinoline & Isoquinoline It is a chemical reaction of 2-aminobenzaldehydes with ketones to form quinoline derivatives. It is named after German chemist Paul Friedländer (1857–1923). Two viable reaction mechanisms exist for this reaction. In the first mechanism 2-amino substituted carbonyl compound 1 and carbonyl compound 2 react in a rate-limiting step to aldol adduct 3. This intermediate loses water in an elimination reaction to unsaturated carbonyl compound 4 and then loses water again in imine formation to quinoline 7. In the second mechanism the first step is Schiff base formation to 5 followed by Aldol reaction to 6 and elimination to 7. KNORR QUINOLINE SYNTHESIS The Knorr quinoline synthesis is an intramolecular organic reaction converting a β-ketoanilide to a 2- hydroxyquinoline using sulfuric acid. This reaction was first described by Ludwig Knorr (1859–1921) in 1886. The reaction is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution accompanied by elimination of water. A 1964 study found that with certain reaction conditions formation of a 4-hydroxyquinoline is a competing reaction. For instance, the compound benzoylacetanilide (1) forms the 2-hydroxyquinoline (2) in a large excess of polyphosphoric acid (PPA) but 4-hydroxyquinoline 3 when the amount of PPA is small. A reaction mechanism identified a N,O- dicationic intermediate A with excess acid capable of ring-closing and a monocationic intermediate B which fragments to aniline and (ultimately to) acetophenone. Aniline reacts with another equivalent of benzoylacetanilide before forming the 4-hydroxyquinoline. Formation of α-hydroxyquinolines from β-ketoesters and arylamines above 100°. The intermediate anilide undergoes cyclization by dehydration with concentrated sulfuric acid: DOEBNER-MILLER SYNTHESIS The Doebner–Miller reaction is the organic reaction of an aniline with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds to form quinolines.

Abstract This work explores the relationship between the structure and solvent effects on the basicity of a large selection of conjugated N-heterocyclic nitrogen bases in different media: polar aprotic solvent acetonitrile, polar protic solvent water and the gas phase. Altogether 58 previously unpublished basicity values in different media for 39 compounds are presented, including 30 experimentally determined pKa values in acetonitrile. We present the pKa and gas phase basicity values for quino[7,8-h]quinoline, which is one of the most basic conjugated nitrogen heterocyclic compounds without basicity-enhancing substituents. The basicity trends are rationalized by comparing basicity data of related compounds in different solvents, as well as by using isodesmic reactions. The gas-phase basicity is predominantly determined by the ability of a molecule to disperse the excess positive charge over a large number of atoms. In solution the situation is less clear and smaller systems with localized charge often lead to higher basicities because of solvent effects. In particular, it was found that fusion of an additional benzene ring does not always lead to basicity increase in solution: its effect can be either basicity-increasing or decreasing, depending on the ring size, number and position of nitrogen atoms and medium.
