Microwave enhanced synthesis of acridines. A new aspect in the Bernthsen reaction

Abstract

The Bernthsen reaction is studied using microwaves as the heat source. This leads to acridines with aromatic and aliphatic substituents in position 9, shortening reaction times and increasing yields, with a reduction in Lewis acid catalyst (ZnCl2), allowing a more environmentally friendly reaction.
