Application

Benzo[h]quinoline was used to study the mutagenic activities of benzo[f]quinoline, benzo[h]quinolone and a number of their derivatives in strain TA 100 of Salmonella typhimurium. It was used in determination of nitrogen-containing polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in the gaseous products of the thermal degradation of polymers by HPLC- fluorescence detection. It was used as starting reagent for the synthesis of osmium and ruthenium complexes containing an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand.

The environmental occurrence and mutagenic activity of quinoline and benzoquinolines are well-documented. In this study, the relative carcinogenic activities of quinoline, benzo[f]quinoline, benzo[h]quinoline, and phenanthridine were evaluated in newborn mice. Mice were injected intraperitoneally on the first, eighth, and fifteenth

A method for the simultaneous determination of 22 nitrogen-containing polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) (15 azaarenes and seven amino-PAHs) in the gaseous products of the thermal degradation of polymers is described. After desorption and clean-up using cation-exchange chromatography (PRS cartridge) the

Benzo[f]quinoline and benzo[h]quinoline are widespread environmental pollutants which have been found to be mutagenic. The metabolism of benzo[f]quinoline and benzo[h]quinoline was investigated using a liver homogenate from Aroclor-pretreated rats. The metabolites of benzo[f]quinoline which were identified were 7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[f]quinoline, 9,10-dihydroxy-9,10-dihydrobenzo[f]quinoline, 7-hydroxybenzo[f]quinoline

The challenging coupling of 10-halobenzo[h]quinolines with ortho-substituted aryl boronic acids has been achieved using Pd(OAc)(2)/P(O)Ph(3) as the catalytic system. High yields were obtained for diversely functionalised substrates under mild reaction conditions.

G-quadruplexes are unusual structures formed from guanine-rich sequences of nucleic acids. G-quadruplexes have been postulated to play important roles in a number of biological systems including gene regulation and the inhibition of enzyme function. Recently, our laboratory reported on the
