Abstract
A simple heterogeneously palladium-catalysed procedure for the selective C3-arylation of indoles is reported. Under relatively standard reaction conditions (Pd-catalyst, K2CO3, dioxane, reflux), using only 1 mol % [Pd(NH3)4]/NaY as the catalyst, indoles substituted or not at position 2 gave up to 92% conversion (i.e., 85% isolated yield) towards the expected C3-arylated indole.
