✦ Synopsis
We have demonstrated the use of the room temperature ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazoliumhexafluorophosphate ([bmim]PF 6 ), as an environmentally benign solvent for the preparation of isoquinoline derivatives through Bischler-Napieralski cyclization under mild conditions with excellent purity and yields. The role of HF as a catalyst in the reaction was also investigated.
