Abstract
A TMSOTf-catalyzed C2-sulfenylation of indole alkaloids with N-sulfenylsuccinimides has been developed. This straightforward, metal-free, and cost-effective catalytic system produces valuable 2-thioindole derivatives with yields ranging from moderate to excellent. The synthetic applicability demonstrated includes the total syntheses of isatindigotindolosides I-IV.
