Abstract
A redox-neutral Ni-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation of alkene with simple arene has been developed, in which DMF played a proton shuttle role in facilitating the intramolecular coupling, avoiding the use of additional reductants and oxidants. A series of oxindoles with a quaternary center were obtained in up to 99% yield.
