Abstract

Selective C-2 functionalization of N-protected and free indoles is reported. The ruthenium-catalyzed C-2 activation of indoles provided an easy access to cyclopentenylated indoles. Hydroheteroarylated bicyclic motifs were synthesized via iridium-catalyzed C-2 activation of NH indoles. The methodology was extended to different bicyclic adducts such as diaza- or urea-derived bicyclic olefins.
