The indium(III)-catalyzed enantioselective and regioselectiveaddition of pyrroles to isatins is described. The effects of metal and solvent on the reactivity and selectivity are compared and discussed, demonstrating that the indium(III)–indapybox complex provides the most effective catalyst. A case of divergent reactivity between pyrroles and indoles is presented.
