The gold-catalyzed intermolecular Diels–Alder cycloaddition and competitive Michael addition reactions between 2-vinylindoles and enones/enals are reported. The reaction outcome strictly correlates with the electronic character of the heteroaromatic substrate. Thus, Diels–Alder cycloadducts are the sole products in the presence of less electron-rich heterocycles, whereas Michael addition adducts are

A simple and efficient palladium-catalyzedoxidative coupling between 2-alkynyl anilines and allylic alcohols is described by using cheap and green dioxygen as the oxidant. These cross-couplings have a large functional group tolerance and are of higher reactivity toward electron nonbaised allylic alcohols. The resultant β-indole ketones are readily converted to pharmaceutically significant β-indole
通过使用廉价的绿色双氧作为氧化剂,描述了2-炔基苯胺和烯丙基醇之间简单而有效的钯催化的氧化偶合。这些交叉偶联具有大的官能团耐受性,并且对电子非卤代烯丙基醇具有更高的反应性。所得的β-吲哚酮易于转化为具有药学意义的β-吲哚醇/胺和吡咯并[2,1- a ]异喹啉。
