Abstract

Oximes serve as a directing group and an internal oxidant in an efficient strategy for synthesis of isoquinolines via Pd(II)-catalyzed homocoupling or cyclization with vinyl azides. This reaction features good functional group tolerance and provides various isoquinolines under mild conditions.
