The products were obtained in high yield under neat reaction conditions without any work-up or chromatographic purification. The generality and functional tolerance of this environmentally benign protocol is demonstrated. 2014 The Royal Society of Chemistry.A highly efficient and green cascade synthesis of 3-methyl-substituted-4- hydroxy-1-methyl-quinolin-2(1H)-ones under solvent- and catalyst-free conditionsArticle
