Quinoline is a

antibiotic resistance
.

Occurrence and isolation

Quinoline was first extracted from

isomers because they reacted differently. However, the German chemist August Hoffmann eventually recognized that the differences in behaviors was due to the presence of contaminants and that the two compounds were actually identical.[10]
The only report of quinoline as a natural product is from the Peruvian stick insect Oreophoetes peruana. They have a pair of thoracic glands from which they discharge a malodorous fluid containing quinoline when disturbed.[11]

Like other nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, such as pyridine derivatives, quinoline is often reported as an environmental contaminant associated with facilities processing oil shale or coal, and has also been found at legacy wood treatment sites. Owing to its relatively high solubility in water quinoline has significant potential for mobility in the environment, which may promote water contamination. Quinoline is readily degradable by certain microorganisms, such as Rhodococcus species Strain Q1, which was isolated from soil and paper mill sludge.[12]

Quinolines are present in small amounts in crude oil within the virgin

hydrodenitrification
.

Synthesis

Quinolines are often synthesized from simple anilines using a number of named reactions.

Going clockwise from top these are:

A number of other processes exist, which require specifically substituted anilines or related compounds:

Quinolines are reduced to tetrahydroquinolines enantioselectively using several catalyst systems.[13][14]

Applications

Quinolines are used in the manufacture of

niacin. It is also used as a solvent for resins and terpenes
.

Quinoline is mainly used as in the production of other

cyanine dyes. Oxidation of quinoline affords quinolinic acid (pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid), a precursor to the herbicide sold under the name "Assert".[8]

The reduction of quinoline with sodium borohydride in the presence of acetic acid is known to produce Kairoline A.[15] (C.f. Kairine)

Several anti-malarial drugs contain quinoline substituents. These include quinine, chloroquine, amodiaquine, and primaquine.

Quinoline is used as a solvent and reagent in organic synthesis.[16]

Quinolinium compounds (e.g. salts) can also be used as corrosion inhibitors and intensifiers.
