Abstract: The reaction of anilines, having electron-withdrawing substituents such as chloro- or trifluoromethyl groups, with acetoacetates was studied. Using the "watering protocol" [5], mainly acetanilides were obtained which were intended ty cyclize to 2-quinolones. However, in contrast to electron-rich anilides, it was not possible to obtain cyclized products from electron-deficient anilides.
