The known 2-aryl-6,8-dibromo-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones 122 were dehydrogenated using thallium(III) p-tolylsulfonate in dimethoxyethane under reflux to afford the 2-aryl-6,8-dibromoquinolin-4(1H)-ones 136. Palladium-catalyzed ...

The previously described 2-aryl-4-chloro-3-iodoquinolines were prepared following literature procedure and in turn converted to the corresponding hitherto unknown 2-aryl-3-iodo-4-(phenylamino)quinoline derivatives using ...

Seventeen novel osmium cymene complexes with O,O′- and P,P′-chelating ligands as well as N- and P-monodentate ligands are reported. The osmium cymene complexes were synthesised and characterised by spectroscopic techniques ...
