title: Cu(II)-promoted three-component coupling sequence for the efficient synthesis of substituted quinolines.
abstract: The copper-promoted three-component coupling sequence for substituted quinoline formation from aldehydes, anilines and acetone is described. Various 2-arylquinolines were selectively obtained in good yields under mild conditions. The reaction tolerated a wide range of functionalities.
