Abstract

An unprecedented Zn-promoted selective cleavage of vinyl azides for the synthesis of 4-substituted quinolines is developed. In this conversion, vinyl azides function as a dual synthon via C═C and C-N bond cleavage with two C═C bonds and one C═N bond formation in a one-step manner. The reaction is appreciated for its readily accessible substrates, high step economy, mild conditions, and use of air as the sole oxidant.
