8-Methylquinoline is unique among the monomethylquinolines in the red-shift it shows in the absorption band derived from the short axis polarized ((1)L(a) <-- (1)A) electronic transition, relative to that in quinoline itself. The effect is even more pronounced in the

The palladium-catalyzed C-H fluorination of 8-methylquinoline derivatives with nucleophilic fluoride is reported. This transformation involves the use of AgF as the fluoride source in combination with a hypervalent iodine oxidant. Both the scope and mechanism of the reaction are discussed.

This communication describes the development of a new Pd-catalyzed method for the fluorination of carbon-hydrogen bonds. A key step of these transformations involves palladium-mediated carbon-fluorine coupling-a much sought after, but previously unprecedented, transformation. These reactions were successfully achieved under oxidative

The hepatic microsomal metabolism of the carcinogenic 8-methylquinoline (8MQ) and its noncarcinogenic isomer, 6-methylquinoline (6MQ), were compared for preparations from control rats and rats pretreated with phenobarbital or 3-methylcholanthrene. For each compound the alcohol was the major metabolite, constituting 50-75%
