Abstract

An efficient synthesis of 4-bromc-l-tceyliqdole (10) based on the Pd (II)-catalyzd cyclization of an o-ethcinylaniline p-toluenesulfonamide has been developed. A Pd (0) oxidative addition-olefin insertion-@-hydride elimination cycle converted 10 to a number of Csubstituted 1-tceylindolea. Selective electrophilic substitutions at the 3-position of 10 provided access to the 3-(chloromercurio)-(18) and 3-iodo-l-tceylindoles (22). ...
