Correction to Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Isoquinolone Synthesis: The N−O Bond as a Handle for C−N Bond Formation and Catalyst Turnover Nicolas Guimond,* Christina Gouliaras, and Keith Fagnou J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 6908−6909. DOI: 10.1021/ja102571b S Supporting Information *

Following a recent report from Huang et al.,1 we further investigated the structure of 3a. In accordance with the proposed structure in Huang’s report, X-ray crystallographic analysis confirmed that 3a is not an isoquinolone but rather the heterocycle resulting from C−O bond reductive elimination (see structure below). This correction does not alter the outcome of our work as it is focused on the synthesis of isoquinolones where the N−O bond has undergone cleavage.

The Supporting Information was modified to match the correct structure of 3a. An electronic crystallographic information file (CIF) was also made available.
