title: Synthesis of highly substituted isoquinolone derivatives by nickel-catalyzed annulation of 2-halobenzamides with alkynes.
abstract: An efficient method for the synthesis of substituted 1(2H)-isoquinolone derivatives via nickel-catalyzed annulation of substituted 2-halobenzamides with alkynes is described. This protocol is successfully applied to the total synthesis of oxyavicine with excellent yield.
