title: Cooperative catalysis with metal and secondary amine: synthesis of 2-substituted quinolines via addition/cycloisomerization cascade.
abstract: A cooperative catalytic system, consisting of CuI and pyrrolidine, has been developed for an efficient synthesis of 2-substituted quinolines. A combination of both the catalysts is necessary; the use of either catalyst alone does not give the product.
