An economical, and practical copper(II) triflate-catalyzed aerobic oxidative CH functionalization of glycine derivatives with olefins and organoboranes has been established. The mild reaction has an excellent functional group tolerance, and exhibits a broad scope with respect to both glycine derivatives and the two types of nucleophilic components, allowing for the facile synthesis of diverse substituted quinolines and glycine derivatives bearing various patterns of functionalities in the -position.
