Abstract
A metal-free CH [5 + 1] carbonylative annulation of 2-alkenyl/pyrrolylanilines with dioxazolones as carbonylating reagents provides privileged quinolinones and pyrrolyl-fused quinoxalinones. This process features exceedingly simple operation and tolerates both vinyl and aryl substrates. Formation of an isocyanate intermediate plays a crucial role in the carbonylation annulation.
