ChemInform Abstract: Rhodium‐Catalyzed Mild and Selective C—H Allylation of Indolines and Indoles with 4‐Vinyl‐1,3‐dioxolan‐2‐one: Facile Access to Indolic Scaffolds with an Allylic Alcohol Moiety.

Abstract

AbstractThe efficient and scalable allylation of indolines is performed using an N‐butylcarbamoyl directing group providing the products as an inseparable mixture of E/Z isomers with the (Z)‐isomer being the major product.
