2018, European Journal of Medicinal ChemistryCitation Excerpt :The reaction without catalyst did not work and the starting products were recovered. However, the use of trifluorboroetherate as Lewis acid catalyst gave us good results: the optimal ones were when 2 equivalents of Lewis acid were used and only 2,4-disubstituted 1,5-naphthyridines 17–31 were regioselectively obtained (Chart 2) when terminal alkynes were used (R2 = H, Chart 1), while the formation of the other regioisomers, namely 2,3-disubstituted 1,5-naphthyridines was not observed [27]. It is noteworthy that not only terminal alkynes 10–14 (Chart 1) can be used for the synthesis of 1,5-naphthyridines 17–31 but also internal alkyne 15 is appropriate for the formation of corresponding heterocyclic compounds, such as naphthyridine 32 (Chart 2).
