It's all under control: The selection between CC and CH activation pathways in 8-acylquinolines can be influenced by the choice of catalyst and solvent (see scheme; cod=cycloocta-1,5-diene). In this approach, an unstrained CC σ bond is activated and subsequent intermolecular carboacylation of an olefin results in the formation of two new CC σ bonds.
