Abstract
Reaction of the morpholine amide derivative of 2-phenyl-4-quinolinecarboxylic acid with mercury(II) acetate and lithium chloride results in chloromercuration at the ortho position on the phenyl ring; the complex was characterised by ESI mass spectrometry and an X-ray structure determination.
