Abstract

Novel fluorine-containing 1,7-phenanthrolines with a variety of substituents at the 3-position were easily synthesized in moderate to high yields by the pyridine-ring formation reaction of N-propargyl-6,8-bis(trifluoroacetyl)quinolin-5-amine with various amines, thiols, alcohols, and phenols.
