An effective metal-free C-H amination of N-Ts-2-alkenylanilines by using DDQ as an oxidant has been developed to afford a diverse range of substituted indoles. This protocol is operationally simple and robust, obviates the need of expensive transition-metal catalysts, and offers a broad substrate scope. A mechanism involving a radical cation generated by SET and a migratorial process via a phenonium ion intermediate is proposed.

A highly effective silver(I)‐mediated CHamination of 2‐alkenylanilines has been developed to afford a diverse range of substituted indoles. High functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope, simple/fast/high‐yielding reaction, and recovery/reuse of the inexpensive silver oxidant are noteworthy. Furthermore, an uncommon migratory process of β‐monosubstituted 2‐alkenylanilines with solvent‐dependence

Hegedus aza-Wacker indole synthesis, we were intrigued with the fate of the aminopalladation intermediate if syn β-hydrogen is made inaccessible or unavailable. In contrast to our previously reported β-carbon elimination, cyclization of a variety of 2-alkenylaniline substrates under electrophilic palladium conditions unexpectedly afforded C3-substituted indoles. This unusual 1,2-migratory process was

A highly regioselective synthesis of 3-arylindoles by using the cooperative FeCl3/DDQ system has been developed. This new protocol represents an attractive route for the synthesis of 3-arylindoles from readily accessible non-indole precursors, β-aryl-substituted 2-styrylanilines, using an inexpensive catalyst and oxidant. Noteworthy is the unique synergetic and synergistic effect of FeCl3 and DDQ on
A tandem phospha‐Michael addition/N‐acylation/intramolecular Wittigreaction of in situ formed aza‐o‐QMs is disclosed. This approach features high functional group tolerance and provides a convenient and practical access to biologically significant indole derivatives (37 examples, up to 91% yield) under mild reaction conditions.
