Abstract
A synthetic method of isoquinolines from aryl ketone O-acyloxime derivatives and internal alkynes has been developed using [Cp*RhCl 2]2 - NaOAc as the potential catalyst system. The present transformation is carried out by a redox-neutral sequence of C - H vinylation via ortho-rhodation and C - N bond formation of the putative vinyl rhodium intermediate on the oxime nitrogen, where the N - O bond of oxime derivatives could work as an internal oxidant to maintain the catalytic cycle.
