Copper is key: A concise route to isoquinolin‐1(2H)‐ones from simple and readily available starting materials is provided by an efficient copper‐catalyzed annulation of ketones with 2‐halobenzamides. The method is applicable to a wide range of ketones containing different functional groups furnishing the products in moderate to excellent yields.

A convenient method is proposed for the synthesis of isoquinolone derivatives from 2-methylaryl aldehydes and nitriles through LiN(SiMe3)2/KOtBu-promoted formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, featuring high atomic economy, good functional group tolerance, and easy operation. It enables the efficient formation of new C–C and C–N bonds toward isoquinolones without using preactivated amides.
