A highly efficient method for the synthesis of indoles has been successfully developed via a CuMgAl-LDH-catalyzed intramolecular annulation reaction of 2-alkynylsulfonanilides. This CuMgAl-LDH catalyst features facile preparation, recovery, and reuse at least seven times without a marked loss in the catalytic activity, as well as the unique dual activation. Moreover, the crystal structures and Hirshfeld

A new selenium-catalyzed protocol for the direct, intramolecular amination of C(sp2)–H bonds using N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide as the terminal oxidant is reported. This method enables the facile formation of a broad range of diversely functionalizedindoles and azaindoles derived from easily accessible ortho-vinyl anilines and vinylated aminopyridines, respectively. The procedure exploits the pronounced
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.

A simple strategy for the syntheses of 2-alkyl indoles via regioselective ring-opening of 2-(2-haloaryl)-3-alkyl-N-tosylaziridines with thiophenol, followed by copper powder-mediated intramolecular C-N cyclization and subsequent aromatization by the elimination of thiophenol, with good yields is described. Utilizing this protocol, 2-carboxyindole has been synthesized easily.
Palladium-free zinc-mediated hydroamination of alkynes: efficient synthesis of indoles from 2-akynylaniline derivatives
Reaction of 2-phenylethynyl N-tosylanilide prepared by Pd-free procedure with ZnBr(2) (3 equiv) in refluxing toluene gave N-tosyl-2-phenylindole in 93% yield. Treatment of 2-phenylethynylaniline with ZnBr(2) (1 equiv) in refluxing toluene resulted in the formation of 2-phenylindole in 91% yield. Catalytic ZnBr(2) (0.05 equiv) effectively reacted with 2-alkynylanilines to afford 2-substituted indoles in high yields. Thus, complete Pd-free zinc catalyzed hydroamination of 2-alkynylanilines was achieved. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
