Metal-free three-component one-pot synthesis of 2,3-diarylquinolines from lignin β-O-4 model compounds

Chengcheng Ding, Lihui Zhan, Kaili Feng, Yanfang Wu, Haigang Yang, Le Zhang, Chen Ma

A transition-metal-free three-component cascade converts lignin β-O-4 models, aniline, and benzaldehyde into diaryl quinolines using molecular iodine, offering a new route from renewable biomass to high-value N-heterocycles.
