intermediates A and C were isolated as reaction intermediates. The 1,2-nitrogen shift in the formation of indole is catalyzed by Zn(OTf)2, and its mechanism has been elucidated. This catalytic cyclization is also applicable to the synthesis of oxazoles through the cyclization of propargyl alcohols and amides without a 1,2-nitrogen shift.
