Palladium-Catalyzed Direct Arylation of Indoles with Cyclohexanones

A novel palladium catalyzed approach to 3-arylindoles was developed from indoles and cyclohexanones. Various cyclohexanones acted as aryl sources via an alkylation and dehydrogenation sequence using molecular oxygen as the hydrogen acceptor. This method showed good regioselectivity and afforded 3-ar...

Zusammenfassung:A novel palladium catalyzed approach to 3-arylindoles was developed from indoles and cyclohexanones. Various cyclohexanones acted as aryl sources via an alkylation and dehydrogenation sequence using molecular oxygen as the hydrogen acceptor. This method showed good regioselectivity and afforded 3-arylindoles as the sole products.
