Palladium-catalyzed oxidative annulation of N-(8-quinolinyl) aryl carboxamides with 1-aryl-2-tosyloxy ethanones

A novel and facile palladium-catalyzed annulation reaction between N-(8-quinolinyl) aryl carboxamides and 1-aryl-2-tosyloxy ethanones was herein demonstrated. The practical transformation took plac...
