title: Design and effective synthesis of the first 4-aza-2,3-didehydropodophyllotoxin rigid aminologue: a N-methyl-4-[(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)amino)]-1,2-dihydroquinoline-lactone.
abstract: The first N1-alkyl-4-amino-1,2-dihydroquinoline-lactone has been prepared by a five-step sequence in a 51% overall yield via the corresponding furo[3,4-b]quinolin-1(3H)-one. A new practical synthesis of this intermediate was carried out using versatile, commercially available starting materials and constitutes the shortest and highest yielding route. These synthetic pathways could be widened with a view toward the preparation of different substituted derivatives, which could be considered as rigid aminologues of 4-aza-2,3-didehydropodophyllotoxins.
