An efficient Rh(III)-catalyzed redox-neutral [2+2+1] coupling between 8-formylquinolines and alkynes has been realized for the synthesis of cyclopentadienols with broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance. The reaction occurs via C (acyl)–H activation with double insertion of the alkyne in high atom-economy. Instead of simply undergoing a [2+2+1] cyclization, a subsequent formal intermolecular
