Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The quinoline nucleus is one of the most essential nuclei in medicinal, pharmaceutical, and organic chemistry. Quinoline and its derivatives have many applications, such as anti-cancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, and recently anti-COVID-19 applications as well as many other medicinal applications that are important in medicinal chemistry industries. Additionally, as the trend of perserving the Earth using green and sustainable synthetic methods and decreasing the use of the traditional methods continue to become more pertinent, one of our aims is to determine new sustainable methods for quinoline synthesis.
Our goal in this Special Issue is to collect articles and connect researchers in the field of the synthesis and in the investigation of quinolines. This may prove useful in the medicinal chemistry industry.
We invite all organic, pharmaceutical, and medicinal chemists to share and publish their work in this Special Issue.
