Iminyl radicals are reactive intermediates that can be used for the construction of various valuable heterocycles. Herein, the electrochemical decarboxylation of α-imino-oxy acids for the generation of iminyl radicals has been accomplished under exogenous-oxidant- and metal-free conditions through the use of nBu4NBr as a mediator. The resulting iminyl radicals undergo intramolecular cyclization smoothly

chemistry, and therefore, novel and efficient approaches to their synthesis are in high demand. Among indoles, 2‐aryl indoles have been described as privileged scaffolds. Advanced herein is a straightforward, practical, and transition‐metal‐free assembly of 2‐aryl indoles. Simply combining readily available 2‐fluorotoluenes, nitriles, LiN(SiMe3)2, and CsF enables the generation of a diverse array of indoles
IrIII‐catalyzed cascade cyclization of indoles and diazoes giving access to unique pentacyclic‐fused carbazoles has been developed. This novel strategy expanded the application scope of coupling partners to take diazo compounds as a C2 source, and two new cycles, three new C−C and one new C−N bonds were formed in one‐pot.
A rhodium(III)-catalyzed indole-directed arylC–H bond carbenoid insertion cascade of 2-arylindoles with diazo compounds has been developed. This method provides a rapid access to 1,2-benzocarbazoles and isoquinoline-based polycyclic heteroaromatics with a broad range of functional group tolerance. The primary evaluation of the photoluminescence property of the novel extended π-systems indicated that

A concise synthesis of pyrazolo[1,5‐a]indole derivatives by copper‐catalyzed aerobic oxygenation and cyclization of indoles with oxime acetates is described. This protocol represents an elegant example of N‐1, C‐2, and C‐3 tri‐functionalization of indoles in one‐pot. Mechanistic studies indicate the reaction proceeds through a radical procedure. Oximes as an internal oxidant have been demonstrated
