Abstract: | A convenient method was developed for the synthesis of diquinolyls by recombination of quinoline anion radicals formed by reaction of quinolines with active metals. A series of diquinolyls, their homologs, and partially hydrogenated derivatives were obtained.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 385–390, March, 1977. |
