Direct C-2 acylation of indoles with toluene derivatives via Pd( ii )-catalyzed C–H activation

A simple and efficient Pd-catalyzed method for the C2-acylation of indoles is described. Less toxic, stable, and commercially available toluene derivatives were used as acyl sources, with tert -butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant and pivalic acid as additive, providing moderate to good yields.
