• quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ether compounds were obtained in high yields (80–93%) after simple recrystallization from ethanol. The structures assigned to these compounds are confirmed by spectral data and elemental analysis, which were fully consistent with the assigned molecular structure as depicted in

• ; methylenedioxy-bearing; one-pot; quinoline-3-carboxylic acid; salicylaldehyde; Introduction Heterocyclic systems containing a quinoline nucleus are an important group of compounds in medicinal chemistry, and are ubiquitous sub-structures associated with biologically active natural products [1][2][3][4]. Some

• compounds exhibited similar spectral characteristics. Elemental analysis was in agreement with the theoretical values. As shown in Table 1, with the exception of 3g (entry 7), a series of 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives 3 were readily prepared under mild reaction conditions in
