Abstract: The most common heterocyclic aromatic molecule with potential uses in industry and
medicine is quinoline. Its chemical formula is C9H7N, and it has a distinctive double-ring structure
with a pyridine moiety fused with a benzene ring. Various synthetic approaches synthesize quinoline
derivatives. These approaches include solvent-free synthetic approach, mechanochemistry,
ultrasonic, photolytic synthetic approach, and microwave and catalytic synthetic approaches. One
of the important synthetic approaches is a catalyst-based synthetic approach in which different catalysts
are used such as silver-based catalysts, titanium-based nanoparticle catalysts, new iridium
catalysts, barium-based catalysts, iron-based catalysts, gold-based catalysts, nickel-based catalyst,
some metal-based photocatalyst, α-amylase biocatalyst, by using multifunctional metal-organic
framework-metal nanoparticle tandem catalyst etc. In the present study, we summarized different
catalyst-promoted reactions that have been reported for the synthesis of quinoline. Hopefully, the
study will be helpful for the researchers.
