36. The microwave experiments were conducted using professional laboratory microwave equipment. A MLS-Ethos 1600 Mikrowellen System (Milestone) was used for the present studies. The reactions were run in 40 mL MLS-reaction high-pressure vessels (up to 15 bar) which contain pressure-control valves. An advanced temperature control system from MLS allowing direct contactless temperature monitoring was used. The microwave power is continuously and dynamically adjusted to follow the defined temperature profile. Temperature profile for the quinoline synthesis: from 25 to 100 °C in 10 s; from 100 to 150 °C in 10 s; from 150 to 180 °C in 10 s and then keep the temperature at 180 °C for 30 min.

41. As compared to the alkene-terminated alkoxyamines, compound 13 turned out to be thermally less stable for unknown reasons. This may lead to the lower yields observed.
