Description

Ethyl 3-isoquinolinecarboxylate is an azide that has been synthesized and activated. It is a mesomorphic liquid with a boiling point of 116° C. With the addition of xylene, ethyl 3-isoquinolinecarboxylate yields azidoacetate. This is then reduced to dihydroisoquinolines with sodium borohydride in ethanol. The nucleophilic nature of ethyl 3-isoquinolinecarboxylate allows it to react with amines to form an enamine by transferring a proton from the nitrogen atom in the amine group to the carboxylic acid group on ethyl 3-isoquinolinecarboxylate. Ethyl 3-isoquinolinecarboxylate can also be used as a trackable substrate for chemical reactions because it contains an azide moiety, which can be detected using infrared spectroscopy or NMR spectroscopy.
