Abstract
A nickel-catalyzed sequential dehydrogenation and condensation process enables a sustainable synthesis of a wide range of polysubstituted quinolines from α-2-aminoaryl alcohols. This strategy allows the use of both primary as well as secondary α-2-aminoaryl alcohols in combination with either ketones or secondary alcohols for desired product formation.
