A one pot microwave assisted synthesis of 3-acyl-2,4-dihydroxyquinoline followed by synthesis of 7-methyldibenzo[c,f][2,7]naphthyridin-6(5H)-ones via three routes

Abstract

An easy one pot microwave assisted synthesis of 3-acyl-2,4-dihydroxyquinoline from simple precursors followed by convenient synthesis of novel and potential HIV integrase inhibitors 7-methyldibenzo[c,f][2,7]naphthyridin-6(5H)-ones has been achieved through three different routes. Mild reaction conditions and good yields are obtained by applying microwave and photochemical techniques.
