We developed a simple and convenient copper-catalyzed method for the synthesis of quinoline-2-carboxylate derivatives through sequential intermolecular addition of alkynes onto imines and subsequent intramolecular ring closure by arylation. The efficiency of this system allowed the reactions to be carried
