  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

1,2-Dihydroquinolines were obtained by the reduction of 3-substituted 2-methyl-4-phenylquinolines with sodium borohydride in aliphatic carboxylic acids; N-alkyl derivatives are also formed. The corresponding 1,4-dihydroquinoline was obtained in the reaction of 2-methyl-3-nitroquinolinium perchlorate with sodium borohydride.
