SO2ClF-promoted chlorination-oxidation of 2-methylindoles: a one-step synthetic method to access 2,3-difunctionalized indoles

A direct and one-step method for the synthesis of 3-chloro-2-formylindoles with SO2ClF is reported. This tandem system consists of double electrophilic chlorination and deprotonation, nucleophilic addition of H2O to the resulting enamine intermediate, and subsequent oxidation. Various readily availa...

Zusammenfassung:A direct and one-step method for the synthesis of 3-chloro-2-formylindoles with SO2ClF is reported. This tandem system consists of double electrophilic chlorination and deprotonation, nucleophilic addition of H2O to the resulting enamine intermediate, and subsequent oxidation. Various readily available 2-methylindoles were applicable to this protocol under mild conditions, furnishing 2,3-difunctionalized indoles in good to high yields.
