Abstract:

An efficient synthesis of 1,3-bis(2-quinolyl) propanes from aromatic aldehydes and 2-methyl quinolines using Brönsted acid ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-butyl imidazol p-toluenesulfonate as catalyst was described. The reaction was heated at 120 ℃ in toluene or solvent-free for 48 h to give the desired products in yields of 56%—92%. The structures of the products were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry(NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry(HRMS). The method offers several advantages including simple work up procedure, good yields and so on.

Key words: Brönsted acid ionic liquid, 1, 3-Di(2-quinolyl)propane, Aromatic aldehyde, 2-Methyl quinoline
