General description

Quinoline is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound with the chemical formula C9H7N.Quinoline derivatives are prevalent in a variety of pharmacologically active synthetic and natural compounds. Quinolines have antiseptic, antipyretic, and antiperiodic properties and are used as antimalarials and for preparing other antimalarial drugs.

Application

Quinoline and its derivatives are widely used as antibiotics, alkaloids, dyes, rubber chemicals, and flavoring agents. Additional industrial applications include their use as corrosion inhibitors and as solvents for resins and terpenes, and in transition-metal complex catalysis for uniform polymerization and luminescence chemistry. They are also used in manufacturing oil soluble dyes, food colorants, pharmaceuticals, pH indicators and other organic compounds. Quinoline is a catabolite of tryptophan, a fundamental structure in some antihypertensive agents such as the peripheral vasodilators prazosin and doxazosin.

Zinc sensors based on 2,3-dipicolylamine (DPA) and quinoline have been synthesized. They fluoresced in the presence of Zn(2+) and remained fluorescent when other metal ions were present. Fluorescence enhancement of the sensors was not seen for most other metal ions.
