Abstract

Azide-containing compounds, organic azides, showcases a variety of reactivities, making them highly convenient and chameleonic intermediates. An indoline derivative has been proven to be of great significance in drug discovery due to its sp3-rich property. In this context, it is interesting to perform such vigorous azidation on medicinal-relevant indoles/indolines, resulting in the production of sp3-rich azidoindolines. The potential biological activity, in combination with the sp3-rich indoline bearing the azido moiety, makes azidoindolines an attractive synthetic target for medicinal and synthetic chemists. This review describes recent advances in the synthesis and application of azidoindolines: (1) iodine-mediated azidations, (2) metal-catalyzed azidations, (3) electrochemical azidations, (4) photochemical azidations, (5) azidation using a combination of an oxidant and an azide source, and (6) nucleophilic azidation.
