In situ air oxidation and photophysical studies of isoquinoline-fused N-heteroacenes

Org Biomol Chem. 2020 Mar 18;18(11):2129-2138. doi: 10.1039/d0ob00375a.

Abstract

An efficient, metal free and environment friendly synthesis of isoquinoline-fused benzimidazole has been developed via in situ air oxidation. Also, syntheses of isoquinoline-fused quinazolinone heteroacenes were successfully achieved. The synthesized isoquinoline-fused benzimidazole and isoquinoline-fused quinazolinone derivatives showed λmax, Fmax and Φf values in the ranges 356-394 nm, 403-444 nm and 0.063-0.471, respectively, in CHCl3.
