Abstract: | 2-Arylazo-1-vinylpyrroles 1-6 react with CF3CO2H (benzene, reflux, 5 h) in a peculiar way: instead of expected electrophilic addition of CF3CO2H to the N-vinyl group, the latter is transferred to the azo group followed by N N bond cleavage to afford substituted 2-methylquinolines 10-12 in up to 56% yields. The reaction was shown (1H, 13C, and 15N NMR) to start with the protonation of the azo group with further inter- and intramolecular involving of two protonated N-vinyl groups to finally build up the quinoline cycle over the aryl moiety. |
