Abstract
DDQ-catalyzed oxidative cross-coupling reaction between indoles and propargyl compounds is reported for the first time. The reaction involves direct carbon-carbon bond formation between sp2 carbons of indoles and sp3 carbons of propargylates to yield the corresponding propargyl indoles in good yields with high selectivity.
Graphical abstractSynthesis of propargyl indoles has been accomplished by oxidative cross-coupling between propargylic sp3 and indole sp2 carbons using DDQ.Download full-size image
