A concise, novel and flexible metal‐free single step to synthesize functionalized quinolines is reported. Triflic anhydride‐mediated (Tf 2 O) activation of amides is discussed in the presence of pyridine to offer strong electrophiles, thereby showcasing excellent productivity, high regio‐ and chemoselectivity, and widely tolerable substrates. This approach provides a straightforward and efficient way to construct azaheterocycle structures.
