Abstract
A series of six new alkyne-2-chloroquinolines were synthesized in moderate yields (40%–65%) via the Passerini three-component reaction (P-3CR) under mild green conditions. The P-3CR takes place when a carboxylic acid, an oxo compound (aldehyde or ketone), and an isocyanide react to give α-acyloxy carboxamides. Recently it has been reported that small molecules containing alkynes promote interactions with different proteins in cells facilitating the detection or identification of protein targets.
