Abstract
A nucleophile-induced intramolecular cyclization of o-alkynylisocyanobenzenes provides 2,3-disubstituted quinoline derivatives in high yields. In addition to oxygen and nitrogen nucleophiles such as methanol and diethylamine, the nucleophilic carbon of the enolate of malonate induced the cyclization effectively.
