Ionic Liquid as an Efficient Medium for the Synthesis of Quinoline Derivatives via α-Chymotrypsin-Catalyzed Friedländer Condensation

An efficient, convenient, and eco-friendly biocatalytic approach was developed for the synthesis of quinoline derivatives via the α-chymotrypsin-catalyzed Friedländer reaction. Interestingly, α-chymotrypsin exhibited higher catalytic activity in an ionic liquid (IL) aqueous solution as compared to t...
