A catalyst and additive-free annulation of 2-pyridylacetates and ynals under molecular oxygen was the first developed, affording 3-acylated indolizines in good to excellent yields. Molecular oxygen was used as the source of the carbonyl oxygen atom in indolizines. This approach was compatible with a wide range of functional groups, and especially it has been successfully extended to unsaturated double bonds and triple bonds, which were difficult to prepare by previous methods in a single step.
