Chapter 20, Problem 35P(choose chapter or problem)
Quinolines, heterocyclic compounds that contain a pyridine ring fused to a benzene ring, are commonly synthesized by a method known as the Skraup synthesis, in which aniline reacts with glycerol under acidic conditions. Nitrobenzene is added to the reaction mixture to serve as an oxidizing agent. The i rst step in the synthesis is the dehydration of glycerol to propenal.
a. What product would be obtained if para-ethylaniline were used instead of aniline?
b. What product would be obtained if \(3\)-hexen-\(2\)-one were used instead of glycerol?
c. What starting materials are needed for the synthesis of \(2,7\)-diethyl-\(3\)-methylquinoline?
