Abstract
A convenient and high-yielding multigram synthesis of the versatile intermediate 4,7-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acid is described. The intermediate is further efficiently derivatized to 4,7-diamino-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxamides with potential G-quadruplex stabilizing effects.
