A new approach to substituted acridines is described. Acridines have been implemented in a variety of different areas, such as antibiotics and organic light emitting diodes. The route to these molecules is straightforward, with simple precursors combined in only a few steps to produce a variety of derivatives quickly and easily. Mechanistic insights to these products are also being investigated. This research has the potential to create a versatile route to acridines for the future.
