Eight-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles were straightforwardly produced by a nickel-catalyzed cycloetherification and subsequent Claisen rearrangement of secondary and tertiary alcohols. In particular, a one-pot transformation was achieved with tertiary alcohols in moderate to good yields. This operationally simple reaction is tolerant of many functional groups and applicable to the synthesis of various medium-sized ring nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
