Carboxylate assistance allowed for ruthenium(II)-catalyzed oxidative alkyne annulations by ketimines under an ambient atmosphere of air. The ruthenium catalyst outperformed representative rhodium and palladium complexes, and provided versatile access to differently decorated 1-methylene-1,2-dihydroisoquinolines in a highly step- and atom-economical manner. Detailed mechanistic studies provided evidence for an initial reversible C-H bond activation event. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
