Abstract

A mild and carbon monoxide gas-free palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of indole has been developed for the synthesis of <i>N</i>-benzoylindoles. This method uses Mo(CO)<sub>6</sub> as a convenient CO-precursor and BuPAd<sub>2</sub> as the ligand. A number of substituents on the aryl bromide species is tolerated under the presented conditions and gave the desired products in up to excellent yields.
