Electroreductive Homo-coupling of Quinolines for the Regioselective Synthesis of 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-2,3'-biquinolines.

A simple and efficient electrochemical reductive homocoupling strategy for the synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,3'-biquinoline from commercially available quinolines has been developed. This method employs diethyl phosphite and water as hydrogen sou…
