Hm, am I understanding you correctly in that you want a method that will 
turn [[key1, val1], [key2, val2]] into { key1 => val1, key2 => val2 }?

If so then this is Hash.from_assoc() which I have already wished to be 
in core Ruby in the past. It can be implemented like this in pure Ruby:

def Hash.from_assoc(assoc)
   assoc.inject({}) { |state, (key, val)| state.merge(key => val) }
end
