Paper
An efficient one-pot approach for the synthesis of polyfunctionalized quinolines was developed via a sequence of copper-catalyzed coupling reaction/propargyl-allenyl isomerization/aza-electrocyclization. Easily available starting materials, mild conditions, and a wide substrate scope make this approach potentially useful.
