Making trees from the grass ! A facile construction of quinoline‐2‐carboxylate esters is described. In the presence of dioxygen and a radical cation salt, sp 3 C–H bonds in 4‐anilinocrotonates can be easily oxidized, and after a domino process, the pharmaceutically relevant quinoline derivatives were afforded in high yields, avoiding harsh reaction conditions and tedious starting material synthesis. More information can be found in the Communication by Xiaodong Jia et al. on page 1719 in Issue 14, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/asia.201700560).
