General description

8-Aminoquinoline fluoresce moderately to weakly in low dielectric media but not in strongly hydrogen-bonding or acidic aqueous media. The reaction of 8-aminoquinoline with chromium (III), manganese (II), iron (II) and (III), cobalt (II), nickel (II), copper (II), zinc (II), cadmium (II) and platinum (II) salts has been studied.

Application

8-Aminoquinoline has been used in:
  • preparation of base-stabilized terminal borylene complex of osmium
  • spectrophotometric determination of bivalent palladium
