Abstract
A novel interrupted Ugi reaction between ortho-sulfonylaminated aryl aldehydes, secondary amines, and isocyanides affords in good to high yields N-alkyl-2,3-diaminoindoles, providing access to a so far unexplored area of the indole chemical space. With only one single chemical operation, this novel reaction affords a broad gamma of substituted 2,3-diaminoindoles with five points of diversity. The success of this novel multicomponent transformation lies in presence of the amphoteric sulfonylamino group, which sequentially acts as a Brønsted acids and asa nucleophile the lack of need for additional catalysts and the high atom economy, with the loss of only one molecule of water, renders this approach a very effective one.
