method for regio- and chemoselective Friedel–Crafts acylation of indole using acyl chlorides in the presence of ZrCl4 has been discovered. It minimizes/eliminates common competing reactions that occur due to high and multiatom-nucleophilic character of indole. In this method, a wide range of aroyl, heteroaroyl alkenoyl, and alkanoyl chlorides undergo smooth acylation with various indoles without NH

of carbonyl groups in keto aldehyde substrates has been exploited for the synthesis of phenanthrols, naphthols, and their heteroatom‐containing analogues. Key to this highly efficient and robust methodology is the catalyst‐free intramolecularformal diazo carboninsertion of N‐tosylhydrazones into keto CCbonds (see scheme).

Scaffold hybridization of several natural and synthetic anticancer leads led to the consideration of indenoindolones as potential novel anticancer agents. A series of these compounds were prepared by a diversity-feasible synthetic method. They were found to possess anticancer activities with higher potency compared to etoposide and 5-fluorouracil in kidney cancer cells (HEK 293) and low toxicity to corresponding normal cells (Vero). They exerted apoptotic effect with blocking of cell cycle at G2/M phase. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Friedel-Crafts reaction of 2-bromobenzoyl chlorides with indoles to give 3-(2-bromobenzoyl)indoles and their palladium-catalyzed intramolecular direct arylation to give indenoindolones, has been developed. 3-(2-Bromobenzoyl)indoles were crucial intermediates; the method was successful with N-unprotected or N-protected indoles. This approach affords a convenient preparation of diverse substituted and functionalized
