Abstract

Suitable functionalised indoles are essential blocks in the synthesis of many natural products containing this nucleus. Indoles bearing unsaturated moieties are excellent precursors for cyclization reactions. [1] We have shown the use of these compounds in Pauson-Khand [2] and metathesis reactions. [3] The synthesis of vinylindoles, which have been used in Diels-Alder reactions, [4] has been reported although 2-vinylindole is described normally in moderate yields. [5] ...
