Abstract

A gold-catalyzed intermolecular reaction of ynamides with 3-indolyl azides via the presumable α-imino gold carbenes has been developed, providing an alternative and efficient way for the synthesis of valuable 3-amino-β-carbolines in generally good to excellent yields. Importantly, this new protocol involves an unexpected 1,2-alkyl migration pathway.
