Abstract
AbstractC‐3 substituted indolizines are important biological heterocycles and luminescent molecules. The development of new methods for direct arylation of indolizines is highly desired. Herein, the C3‐acylation of electron‐rich indolizines with α‐keto acids through Cu‐promoted decarboxylation was descried. Under this simple reaction conditions, a variety of indolizine derivatives were synthesized and characterized. The structure of product 3 a was confirmed in an X‐ray crystal analysis. In addition, the mechanism was also proposed.
