Synthesis and protonation of 2,3′-biquinolyl dianions

Abstract

It has been shown that the reaction of 2, 3′-biquinolyls with an excess of lithium in tetrahydrofuran leads to the formation of dianions, treatment of which with water or D₂O gives 1′, 4′-dihydro-2, 3′-biquinolyls or their 4′-D derivatives in good yield. Oxidation of the latter leads to 4′-D-2,3′-biquinolyl. The reduction of 2, 3′-biquinolyl has been studied.
