Abstract: | Promoted by SmI2, 3‐aryl‐2,1‐benzi‐ soxazoles underwent reductive cleavage of the N O bond leading to 2‐aminobenzophenones in high yields upon protonation. Otherwise, if ketones with active methylene group were added to the reaction mixture prior to protonation, the desired polysubstituted quinolines could be obtained under mild conditions in a one‐pot manner. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
