A novel and efficient reductive N-alkenylation of iminoquinones with electron-deficient olefins has been successfully developed by Pd(II)-catalyzed redox-neutral reactions, which provides a synthesis of tertiary (E)-enamines. We further demonstrate that the tertiary enamines can be converted to multifarious N-heterocyclic compounds, indoles, and quinolones in good yields.
