Iridium-catalyzed methylation of indoles and pyrroles using methanol as feedstock

Iridium-catalyzed methylation of indoles and pyrroles using methanol as the methylating agent was achieved. This transformation takes place via a borrowing hydrogen methodology under an air atmosphere, which constitutes a direct route to 3-methyl-indoles and methyl-pyrroles.
