One-pot photocatalytic synthesis of quinaldines from nitroarenes with Au loaded TiO2 nanoparticles

摘要

One-pot photocatalytic synthesis of quinaldines from nitroarenes using Au-TiO2 nanoparticles is reported. Au-TiO2 on irradiation induces a combined redox reaction with nitroarene and alcohol and the products undergo condensation-cyclization process to give quinaldines.
