    General. All reactions were conducted under an oxygen atmosphere (condition A) or

    a nitrogen atmosphere (condition B) on a dual-manifold schlenk line unless otherwise

    mentioned and in oven-dried glass wares. All solvents were dried according to known

    methods and distilled prior to use.1 [Cp*RhCl2]2 was prepared from RhCl3.xH2O

    following a literature procedure.2 Other reagents were commercially available and

    used as purchased.

    General Procedure for the Synthesis of Quinolizinium Salts (Condition A).

    A sealed tube containing [Cp*RhCl2]2 (1.8 mg, 0.0028 mmol) and

    Cu(BF4)2.6H2O (49.0 mg, 0.14 mmol) was evacuated and purged with oxygen gas

    three times. Then, 2-vinylpyridine 1 (0.28 mmol) and alkyne 2 (0.34 mmol) in MeOH

    (1.0 mL) were added to the system via syringe under an oxygen atmosphere and the

    reaction was allowed to stir at 60 °C for 18 h under O2. When the reaction was

    completed, the mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (10 mL) and filtered through a Celite

    pad and the Celite pad was washed several times with CH2Cl2 (50 mL). The combined

    filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by column

    chromatography on a silica gel column using DCM/MeOH (95:5) as eluent to afford

    the desired pure product 3.

    General Procedure for the Synthesis of Quinolizinium Salts (Condition B).

    A sealed tube containing [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 (3.5 mg, 0.0056 mmol), AgBF4

    (6.0 mg, 0.028 mmol), and Cu(BF4)2.6H2O (197.0 mg, 0.56 mmol) was evacuated and

    purged with nitrogen gas three times. Then, 2-vinylpyridine 1 (0.28 mmol) and alkyne

    2 (0.34 mmol) in EtOAc (2.0 mL) were added to the system via syringe under a

    nitrogen atmosphere and the reaction was allowed to stir at 100 °C for 24 h. When the

    reaction was completed, the mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (10 mL) and filtered

    Synthesis of Tetrahydroquinolizinium Salt 3aa’

    To a 50 mL-flask were added 3aa (100 mg, 0.27 mmol), Pd/C (6 mg, 0.027

    mmol), and MeOH (10 mL). Hydrogen gas was bubbled through the suspension,

    and then the mixture was stirred at 30 °C for 16 h under one hydrogen gas

    atmosphere. After the reaction time was completed, the mixture was filtered

    through a Celite pad and the Celite pad was washed several times with MeOH

    (30 mL). The combined filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the mixture was

    separated by column chromatography on a silica gel column using a mixture of

    DCM/MeOH (95:5) as eluent to afford the desired pure product 3aa’.
