Abstract

AbstractWe report a catalyst-free method for the alkylation/annulation of N-arylacrylamides to give the corresponding 3-alkyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indoles by using alkyl iodides as precursors of alkyl radicals. These reactions occur at moderate temperatures and are mediated by easily accessible K2S2O8 and Bu3N.
