Simultaneous construction of C-C, C-O, and C-N bonds utilizing Cs2CO3 as a source of carbonyl (CO) and ethereal oxygen and a cascade synthesis of benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolin-6(5H)-one are achieved using a combination of Cu(OAc)2 and Ag2CO3.

The simultaneous construction of C–C, C–O, and C–N bonds utilizing Cs2CO3 as a source of both carbonyl (CO) and ethereal oxygen and a cascade synthesis of benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolin-6(5H)-one have been achieved using a combination of Cu(OAc)2 and Ag2CO3. A plausible mechanism has been proposed for this unprecedented transformation.
