A new method for building aryl aryl ketones containing heterocyclic rings through chelation-assisted C–O bond activation catalyzed by a rhodium complex has been developed. In this reaction, methyl quinoline-8-carboxylate, methyl quinoxaline-5-carboxylate, and their derivatives were reacted with an excess amount of a substituted phenyl boronic acid in the presence of a rhodium(I) complex to give substituted
