A rhodium(III)-catalyzed cascade cyclization/electrophilic amidation using N-pivaloyloxylamides as the electrophilic nitrogen source has been developed. This protocol provides an efficient route for the synthesis of 3-amidoindoles and 3-amidofurans under mild conditions with good functional group tolerance. The synthetic utility of this reaction has been demonstrated through the derivatization of the
2-Halo-anilines, protected as the corresponding sulfonamides or carbamates, can be converted very efficiently into 3-iodoindoles by sequential Sonogashira coupling with a 1-alkyne and 5-endo-dig iodocyclisation. Azaindoles can also be obtained using this methodology. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
