An effective metal-free C-H amination of N-Ts-2-alkenylanilines by using DDQ as an oxidant has been developed to afford a diverse range of substituted indoles. This protocol is operationally simple and robust, obviates the need of expensive transition-metal catalysts, and offers a broad substrate scope. A mechanism involving a radical cation generated by SET and a migratorial process via a phenonium ion intermediate is proposed.

A highly effective silver(I)‐mediated CHamination of 2‐alkenylanilines has been developed to afford a diverse range of substituted indoles. High functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope, simple/fast/high‐yielding reaction, and recovery/reuse of the inexpensive silver oxidant are noteworthy. Furthermore, an uncommon migratory process of β‐monosubstituted 2‐alkenylanilines with solvent‐dependence

Abstractmagnified imageInexpensive copper catalysts allow for efficient syntheses of N‐aryl‐, N‐acyl‐, or N‐H‐(aza)indoles starting from ortho‐alkynylbromoarenes. The broad scope of this domino N‐arylation/hydroamin(d)ation process is highlighted by the synthesis of highly functionalized indoles, as well as of a Chek1/KDR inhibitor pharmacophore.
